What is Atherosclerosis and Definition. Atherosclerosis is Accumulation of lipids and other materials (ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE) between the two layers of an arteryâs inner wall, the intima.Over time the accumulations form brittle, hard deposits called atheromas that thicken the intima and the media (the middle of the arterial wallâs three layers).therosclerosis is Accumulation of lipids and other materials (ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE) between the two layers of an arteryâs inner wall, the intima.
Clouded leopards are a medium-sized cat named for the cloud-like spots on its coat. These provide camouflage in the dappled light of its forest habitat. (In China the cat is known as the 'Mint Leopard' because its spots can also look like mint leaves).
A more liberal and expansive definition is sometimes used which may include the snow leopard, puma, clouded leopard, Sunda clouded leopard and/or cheetah, although these added species do not roar. The two clouded leopard species are considered an evolutionary link between big and small cats.
