filament

Tokuda and the other scientists wanted to understand if filaments, or threadlike fibers, form during star formation, as this reveals key details about their density and overall composition.

The structure that allows the chloroplast to make these necessary changes was found to be a network of thin filaments.

Some clear glass halos and discs hang in space, suspended on filament.

The 2022 study focused directly on Jupiter's cyclones, but Siegelman also saw wispy tendrils, known to researchers as filaments, in the spaces between the gassy vortices.

The study showed that the diastolic dysfunction in female mice resulted from altered heart filament proteins.
