Seta /ˈsiːtə/, plural: setae /ˈsiːtiː/, is a biological term derived from the Latin word for "bristle". It refers to a number of different bristle- or hair-like structures on living organisms.
Annelid setae are stiff bristles present on the body. They help, for example, earthworms to attach to the surface and prevent backsliding during peristaltic motion. These hairs are what make it difficult to pull a worm straight from the ground. Setae in oligochaetes (a group including earthworms) are largely composed of chitin. They are classified according to the limb to which they are attached; for instance, notosetae are attached to notopodia; neurosetae to neuropodia.
Crustaceans have mechano- and chemosensory setae. Setae are especially present on the mouthparts of crustaceans and can also be found on grooming limbs. In some cases, setae are modified into scale like structures. Setae on the legs of krill and other small crustaceans help them to gather phytoplankton. It captures them and allows them to be eaten.
SETA Corporation (株式会社セタ Kabushiki-Gaisha Seta) (Full company name Super Entertainment and Total Amusement) was a Japanese computer gaming company, founded on October 1, 1985 and dissolved on January 23, 2009. Seta was headquartered in Kōtō, Tokyo. The American branch of Seta was located in Las Vegas, Nevada.
As a video game publisher, it made games for the Nintendo Entertainment System, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, and various other systems. It made games in North America but mainly Japan (specialising in golf and puzzle titles). SETA also developed the arcade system, the Aleck 64 which was based on N64 architecture. Also, SETA co-developed the SSV (Sammy, SETA, Visco) system.
On December 2008, parent company Aruze announced that Seta decided to close shop after 23 years of existence:
"Based on the deterioration of economic conditions within Japan as caused by the current international financial crisis, Seta came to the conclusion that the continuation of its business on its own would be difficult, and thereby resolved its dissolution and liquidation."
Seta is a bristle in plants and animals.
Seta may also refer to:
Echoside Echoside not without my echoside (repeat)
Imagine a place that exists beyond, a place thats seldom seen
A place that even the wickedest souls that burn have never been
There was a soul named Damion he was nothin heaven to say
Instead he was cast to the flames of hell to serve an eternal grave
Even in the after life things don't always go as planned
Satan's realm see's through, it's hectic and over jammed
Damion earned his spot in hell right until his dieing day
So the wagons took his sorry soul and taunted him all the way
They finally reached that resting place and endless pit of fire
But Damion had excapte throught the back door of Satan's lair
Out the back entrance of hell with no were else to hide His time is just a toomb resting in the Echoside
Echoside Echoside not without my echoside (4x)
In the Background: Take me to the shadows on the other side of time
If there is a hell then there must be a behind
Take me from the nethervoid and bury me in black
Take me from the echoside and never bring me back
Damion ran as far as he could before his legs began decaying
There were many dead trees of blood red skies and headless children playing
A wicked man with a long black tongue saw Damions legs were dead
So he layed on top of Damion and then licked the back of his neck and said
Backwords talking saying: Fuck the Devil Fuck That Shit We Believe in life legit
If you diggin what we say
Why you throw your sould away?
Echoside Echoside not without my Echoside (4x)
In the background: Take me to the shadows on the other side of time
If there is a hell then there must be a behind
Take me from the nethervoid and bury me in black
Take me from the echoside and never bring me back
Backwards talking again saying: Fuck The Devil Fuck That Shit
We Believe in life legit
If you diggin what we say
Why you throw your soul away?
Damion crawled for many hours in puddles of blood he lay
Torchered by everything he saw yet wishin along the way His arms decayed and fell off his body as he rolled along the floor
Still trying not too look back, as if something else were in store
The clouds above were dark and hot yet dripping with blood rain
The ground infested with rodents that crawled throughout his veins
As Damion layed in Echoside, hells screams could still be heard
Blood red sky would flicker with the torchering that occured
Thinking that he had escaped every scream he heard he laughed
With the headless children pointing and urinating in his lap
He finally saw some fortress gates so he quickly rolled into it
These red gates were the front doors of hell, he never knew it, he he
Echoside Echoside not without my echoside
In the Background: Take me to the shadows on the other side of time
If there is a hell then there must be a behind
Take me from the nethervoid and bury me in black
Take me from the echoside and never bring me back
