A leister is a type of spear used for spearfishing.Leisters are three-pronged with backward-facing barbs, historically often built using materials such as bone and ivory, with tools such as the saw-knife. In many cases it could be disassembled into a harpoon allowing for greater functionality.Leisters have been used by hunter-gatherer cultures throughout the world since the Stone Age and are still used for fishing by indigenous tribes and cultures today.

Treed generally refers to being in an area that is densely populated by trees or having objects or individuals (like animals during hunting) forced up a tree. The term is often used in activities such as hunting. For animals, being treed usually means they have retreated to the branches of a tree to escape danger.

The family Magnoliaceae, commonly known as the magnolia family, is a group of about 240 species of flowering plants that are characterized by their large, often fragrant flowers and their woody structures. This family includes trees, shrubs, and woody vines known as lianas, which are primarily found in the Southeast Asia and the Americas. Notable among these species is the Magnolia genus, from which the family derives its name. Members of the Magnoliaceae family are known for their showy, often fragrant flowers, which have a large number of tepals arranged in whorls.

A reusable solderless device used to build a (usually temporary) prototype of an electronic circuit and for experimenting with circuit designs.

Sheared refers to the action of having cut off or removed something by clipping, shaving, or slicing. Its commonly associated physically with the process of removing wool from sheep, cutting hair, or reducing the size of materials in industries. In terms of physics and engineering, sheared is used to describe deformation of an object in which parallel planes remain parallel but are shifted in a direction parallel to themselves.

Entandrophragma cylindricum, commonly known as sapele or sapele mahogany, is a large tree species native to tropical Africa. It is well known for its commercially valuable wood, which is used for furniture, cabinetry, flooring, and musical instruments among many other applications. The sapele tree can grow up to 45 meters or more in height, with a trunk diameter of up to 2.4 meters. It belongs to the Meliaceae family.

Black spleenwort, scientifically known as Asplenium adiantum-nigrum, is a species of fern found in many parts of the world. It gets its name from the black central stem, or rachis, that supports the compound leaves. This perennial plant typically grows on walls, rocks, and in woods, preferring damp and shaded areas. It is characterized by its pinnate leaves and small, round sori (clusters of spore-producing structures) on the underside of the leaves.

Phototrophs (from Ancient Greek φῶς, φωτός (phôs, phōtós) light, and τροφή (trophḗ) nourishment) are organisms that carry out photon capture to produce complex organic compounds (e.g. carbohydrates) and acquire energy. They use the energy from light to carry out various cellular metabolic processes. It is a common misconception that phototrophs are obligatorily photosynthetic. Many, but not all, phototrophs often photosynthesize: they anabolically convert carbon dioxide into organic material to be utilized structurally, functionally, or as a source for later catabolic processes (e.g. in the form of starches, sugars and fats). All phototrophs either use electron transport chains or direct proton pumping to establish an electrochemical gradient which is utilized by ATP synthase, to provide the molecular energy currency for the cell. Phototrophs can be either autotrophs or heterotrophs. If their electron and hydrogen donors are inorganic compounds (e.g. Na2S2O3, as in some purple sulfur bacteria, or H2S, as in some green sulfur bacteria) they can be also called lithotrophs, and so, some photoautotrophs are also called photolithoautotrophs. Examples of phototroph organisms are Rhodobacter capsulatus, Chromatium, and Chlorobium.
