Anteater is a common name for the four mammal species of the suborder Vermilingua (meaning worm tongue) commonly known for eating ants and termites.nteaters are mostly solitary mammals prepared to defend their 1.0- to 1.5-mi 2 (2.6- to 2.9-km 2) territories. Normally, they do not enter a territory of another anteater of the same sex, but males often enter the territory of associated females.
Endocardium (endo-cardium) is the thin inner layer of the heart wall. This layer lines the inner heart chambers, covers heart valves, and is continuous with the endothelium of large blood vessels. The endocardium of heart atria consists of smooth muscle, as well as elastic fibers.
Endocarditis is also known as infective endocarditis, bacterial endocarditis, infectious endocarditis, and fungal endocarditis. The heart consists of four chambers and four valves-these are lines with a thin layer of cells (a membrane). This membrane is called the endocardium.n infection of the endocardium causes endocarditis. The infection is generally caused by the bacteria streptococci or staphylococci. Endocarditis can be caused by fungi or other infectious micro-organisms, but very rarely.
