翅瓣[chì bàn]
  1. 羽毛最初由昆虫的翅瓣演化而来。

    Feathers initially developed from insect scales .

  2. 凤蝶的翅瓣是由许多微小结构构成的。研究人员称,这些微小结构中有护膜空气隔层,类似于鸡蛋盒的内部结构。

    Scales on the wings are made up of tiny structures that researchers say resemble the inside of an egg carton , with alternating layers of cuticle and air .

  3. 太阳光从这些结构中反射出来,翅瓣看上去就是绿油油的,但要是利用光学设备使光发生偏振,那些翅瓣就会变成亮蓝色。

    The light bounces off the structures so that the scales appear to us as a shimmering green . But using optical equipment that can polarize light , those scales appear bright blue .
