Aberrant


Definition:

  • (a.) Wandering; straying from the right way.
  • (a.) Deviating from the ordinary or natural type; exceptional; abnormal.

Example Sentences:

  • (11) 50 cells at metaphase per animal were scored for chromosomal aberrations.

Anomalous


Definition:

  • (a.) Deviating from a general rule, method, or analogy; abnormal; irregular; as, an anomalous proceeding.

Example Sentences:

  • (3) It facilitated the acquisition of quantitative velocity information with standard Doppler ultrasound techniques by identifying areas of high velocity or turbulent flow and was invaluable in the assessment of anomalous pulmonary venous drainage occurring either as an isolated anomaly or in conjunction with complex intracardiac lesions.
  • (4) It is anomalous that the world is equipped with global funds to finance action on infectious diseases and climate change, but not humanitarian crises.
  • (5) Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the main pulmonary trunk results in myocardial ischemia or infarction, and may be a cause of death in the first months of life.
