    Macrophages - cells derived¹ from monocytes which have the ability to phagocytose foreign particles and dead tissue and to move through tissue, or to remain fixed² in one place. There are many macrophages in the spleen where they remove dead red blood cells from the circulation.

    Major salivary³ glands⁴ - are three large glands on each side of the face; the parotid, submandibular and submaxillary.

    Malleus - one of the three bones of the inner ear. The others are the stapes and the incus.

    Mastication⁵ - the process of preparing food for swallowing and digestion⁶ by chewing it.

    Matrix - comes from the Latin word "mater"meaning mother. It is a structure which encloses or holds something within it. Cells are held or enclosed in a matrix of fibres, water and large molecules⁸ called the ground substance.

    Mesial drift - a gradual movement of all the posterior teeth in a mesial direction. It occurs only if there has been interproximal wear between the teeth. The drift is not a passive one however, as it has been shown that during chewing, the bite force has a a mesial component¹⁶.

    Mesial - towards the midline.

    Mesoderm - the middle of the three cell layers which form, as the clump¹⁷ of early embryonic¹⁸ cells begins to differentiate¹⁹. The mesoderm will form the muscles, blood system, connective tissue, including bone and dentine, the kidneys and the dermis²⁰ of the skin. The other two layers are the ectoderm and theendoderm.

    Messenger RNA - a ribose nucleic acid acid which caries the DNA²¹ code in matching nucleotides, from the nucleus²² to the ribosome of the cell.

    Metabolise - to obtain energy by breaking down a molecule⁷ into smaller components²³, as in respiration²⁴ or to store energy by building a more complex molecule out of smaller components. It always takes place in a number of stages, controlled by enzymes²⁵. Each step in the process follows a predictable "metabolic²⁶" pathway for that reaction.
