An area marking the line of union.<\/p>\n
A fibrous area where paired muscles meet.<\/p>\n
A ridge of tissue (the continuation of the funicular bundle) connecting the hilum (i.e. seed attachment point) to the chalaza; also spelled rhaphe but raphe is preferred.<\/p>\n
A long thin fold which looks like a seam, along a midline such as on the dorsal face of the tongue.<\/p>\n
Line, ridge, or seam showing the union of two parts (e.g., palatine raphe, seam at the center of the hard palate).<\/p>\n
A line, ridge, seam, or crease in tissue or organ, especially the line marking the junction of two embryologically distinct parts that have fused to form a single structure in the adult. For example, the raphe of the tongue is the furrow that passes down the center of the dorsal surface of the tongue.<\/p>\n
