1. Once ingested by a caterpillar, the protein globule dissolves, releasing thousands of viruses, or virions, that after about two weeks multiply enough to fill the entire body cavity. 一旦被毛虫摄入，蛋白质小球就会溶解，释放出数以千计的病毒或病毒粒子，大约两周后这些病毒就会大量繁殖，足以填满整个体腔。
2. When the caterpillar dies, the virions are released to the outside, encased in a new protein globule synthesized from the caterpillar's tissues and ready to be picked up by other caterpillars. 当毛毛虫死亡时，病毒粒子被释放到外面，被包裹在由毛毛虫的组织合成的新的蛋白质小球中，并准备被其他毛毛虫吸收。
3. A fused metal or glass globule. 金属合金的表面或外层。
4. A bok globule nicknamed the "caterpillar" appears at the right. 一个绰号“毛虫”的博克球状体在右边。
5. The shape of a liquid globule in a free-falling elevator is calculated. 定量讨论了自由降落升降机中实际液滴的形状。
