    A steamer clam is a term commonly used to refer to various species of soft-shell clams (such as Mya arenaria) found primarily along the East Coast of the United States. These bivalve mollusks are popular in seafood dishes and are often prepared by steaming, hence the name. The term can also sometimes refer to other types of clams suitable for steaming.

    Gimel is the third letter of the Semitic abjads, including Phoenician Gīml , Hebrew Gimel ג, Aramaic Gāmal , Syriac Gāmal ܓ, and Arabic ǧīm ج (in alphabetical order; fifth in spelling order). Its sound value in the original Phoenician and in all derived alphabets, except Arabic, is a voiced velar plosive [ɡ]; in Modern Standard Arabic, it represents either a /d͡ʒ/ or /ʒ/ for most Arabic speakers except in Northern Egypt, the southern parts of Yemen and some parts of Oman where it is pronounced as the voiced velar plosive [ɡ] (see below). In its Proto-Canaanite form, the letter may have been named after a weapon that was either a staff sling or a throwing stick (spear thrower), ultimately deriving from a Proto-Sinaitic glyph based on the hieroglyph below:

    Cytochrome C is a small heme protein found loosely associated with the inner membrane of the mitochondrion. It is a component of the electron transport chain in the mitochondria, where it accepts electrons from the b-type cytochromes and transfers them to cytochrome oxidase. In addition to its role in energy production, cytochrome C plays a key role in the initiation of apoptosis, or programmed cell death.
