gastropoda \gastrop"oda\, n. pl., nl., fr. gr. ?, ?, stomach
   + -poda. zool.
   one of the classes of mollusca, of great extent. it includes
   most of the marine spiral shells, and the land and
   fresh-water snails. they generally creep by means of a flat,
   muscular disk, or foot, on the ventral side of the body. the
   head usually bears one or two pairs of tentacles. see
   mollusca. written also gasteropoda.
   1913 webster

   note: the gastropoda are divided into three subclasses; viz.:
         a the streptoneura or dioecia, including the
         pectinibranchiata, rhipidoglossa, docoglossa, and
         heteropoda. b the euthyneura, including the
         pulmonata and opisthobranchia. c the amphineura,
         including the polyplacophora and aplacophora.

   infinitive mood gram., that form of the verb which merely
      names the action, and performs the office of a verbal
      noun. some grammarians make two forms in english: a
      the simple form, as, speak, go, hear, before which to is
      commonly placed, as, to speak; to go; to hear. b the
      form of the imperfect participle, called the infinitive in
      -ing; as, going is as easy as standing.
      1913 webster

   note: with the auxiliary verbs may, can, must, might, could,
         would, and should, the simple infinitive is expressed
         without to; as, you may speak; they must hear, etc. the
         infinitive usually omits to with the verbs let, dare,
         do, bid, make, see, hear, need, etc.; as, let me go;
         you dare not tell; make him work; hear him talk, etc.
         1913 webster

   note: in anglo-saxon, the simple infinitive was not preceded
         by to the sign of modern simple infinitive, but it
         had a dative form sometimes called the gerundial
         infinitive which was preceded by to, and was chiefly
         employed in expressing purpose. see gerund, 2.
         1913 webster

   note: the gerundial ending -anne not only took the same
         form as the simple infinitive -an, but it was
         confounded with the present participle in -ende, or
         -inde later -inge.

      it takes place; as: a libration in longitude, that
      which, depending on the place of the moon in its elliptic
      orbit, causes small portions near the eastern and western
      borders alternately to appear and disappear each month.
      b libration in latitude, that which depends on the

   4. physiol. the act of resping or breathing; the act of

      processes bu which oxygen is introduced into the system,
      and carbon dioxide, or carbonic acid, removed.
      1913 webster

   note: respiration in the higher animals is divided into:
         a internal respiration, or the interchange of
         oxygen and carbonic acid between the cells of the body
         and the bathing them, which in one sense is a process
         of nutrition. b external respiration, or the
         gaseous interchange taking place in the special
         respiratory organs, the lungs. this constitutes
         respiration proper. --gamgee.
         1913 webster in the respiration of plants oxygen is
         likewise absorbed and carbonic acid exhaled, but in the
         light this process is obscured by another process which
         goes on with more vigor, in which the plant inhales and
         absorbs carbonic acid and exhales free oxygen.

ferment \fer"ment\, n. l. fermentum ferment in senses 1  2,
   perh. for fervimentum, fr. fervere to be boiling hot, boil,
   ferment: cf. f. ferment. cf. 1st barm, fervent.
   1. that which causes fermentation, as yeast, barm, or
      fermenting beer.
      1913 webster

   note: ferments are of two kinds: a formed or organized
         ferments. b unorganized or structureless ferments.
         the latter are now called enzymes and were formerly
         called soluble ferments or chemical ferments.
         ferments of the first class are as a rule simple
         microscopic vegetable organisms, and the fermentations
         which they engender are due to their growth and
         development; as, the acetic ferment, the butyric
         ferment, etc. see fermentation. ferments of the
         second class, on the other hand, are chemical
         substances; as a rule they are proteins soluble in
         glycerin and precipitated by alcohol. in action they
         are catalytic and, mainly, hydrolytic. good examples
         are pepsin of the dastric juice, ptyalin of the salvia,
         and disease of malt. before 1960 the term "ferment" to
         mean "enzyme" fell out of use. enzymes are now known to
         be globular proteins, capable of catalyzing a wide
         variety of chemical reactions, not merely hydrolytic.
         the full set of enzymes causing production of ethyl
         alcohol from sugar has been identified and individually
         purified and studied. see enzyme.
