- A ridge that forms a seam between two parts
- Raphe (/u02C8reu026Afu026A/; from Greek u1FE5u03B1u03C6u03AE, "seam") has several different meanings in science.
- A ridge or seam on an organ, bodily tissue, or other structure, especially at the join between two halves or sections
- Slit through valve along apical axis. Composed of (usually) two branches per valve.
- Greek a seam; hence, the line of junction of the edges of 2 muscles or areas of skin.
- In diatoms, a slit in the valve face that allows the cell to move along a substrate
- A line (like a groove or a seam) in the body where two halves developed before birth and fused together. The line along the underside of a penis that runs from the tip of the penis to the anus is called the penile raphe (along the penis) or the scrotal raphe (along the scrotum). ...
- An elongated fissure in a valve. The raphe is used for movement. The number and position of raphes is important for identification.
