“It's hard enough trying to remember cubed roots and the average lifespan of an amoeba.”

“Does it not follow that if the evolution of amoeba to man is fact, then the development of primitive man to civilized man must be fact also?”

“If fewer genes meant more freedom, then we would have to say flies and amoeba have more free will than humans.”

“The assay consists of a colorless substrate and a proenzyme extracted from amoebocyte cells in the blood of horseshoe crabs.”

“Chromogenic Limulus amoebocyte lysate assay for rapid detection of Gram negative bacteriuria.”

“In a favorable situation, an opening called the micropyle appears and releases amoebocytes, which differentiate into cells of all the other types.”

“I'm a big believer in Darwin's theory that all life forms evolved from amoebae.”

“In addition to the protozoan in Figure 1.6, several other types were found, including amoebae, other flagellates and ciliates.”

“Marine amoebae are not in danger of lysis or crenation because seawater and their cytoplasm are isotonic.”

“Like amoebas, the hotel chains expand until they collide and fight with neighboring rivals.”

“To put this time span in perspective, two billion years ago our ancestors were microscopic single-celled amoebas.”

“Because infectious agents can produce symptoms indistinguishable from ulcerative colitis, microbiologic analyses for bacteria, parasites, and amoebas should be performed.”
