Dictyosomes are a special set of flat staked vesicles usually called Golgi apparatus or complex (Rizzotti, M. (2000). Eukaryotes: Dictyosomes. In: Early Evolution. Birkhäuser, Basel. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-0348-8668-0_8)
An extensive body of air having similar properties of temperature and moisture in a horizontal plane. (Global Fire Monitoring Center, 2011. International multilingual forest fire terminology. http://www.fire.uni-freiburg.de/literature/RUS-MON-GER-ENG-Glossary-Web.pdf)
Dielectric properties of a material are a measure of the potential for charge movement inside the material in response to an external electric field. Dielectric properties predict how nonmagnetic materials such as foods interact with electromagnetic radiation. (T. Durance, P. Yaghmaee, 4.51 - Microwave Dehydration of Food and Food Ingredients,

The relative rate and completeness at which a food is digested and absorbed. Refers to the extent to which a feedstuff is absorbed from an animal’s gastrointestinal tract. (Anonymous (1998) AQUALEX.

Digestion is the process of mechanically and enzymatically breaking down food into substances for absorption into the bloodstream. (Patricia JJ, Dhamoon AS. Physiology, Digestion.

A group of organs stretching from the mouth to the anus serving to breakdown foods, assimilate nutrients, and eliminate waste. In humans, the digestive system includes the gastrointestinal tract and the accessory glands. (Adapted from MeSH. 2025. Digestive System. https://meshb.nlm.nih.gov/record/ui?ui=D004064)
