A projecting part; specifically, a split, fissure, or cleft (as in rocks), or an offshoot, branch, or limb (as on a tree), highlighting an element that 'diverges' or 'shoots out' from a larger whole. The term refers both to geological features (natural gaps or splits in rock) and botanical ones (a branch emanating from a trunk or main limb), often with an emphasis on separation or divergence from the main body.
