What's the difference between adjacent and anticlinal?

Adjacent


Definition:

  • (a.) Lying near, close, or contiguous; neighboring; bordering on; as, a field adjacent to the highway.
  • (n.) That which is adjacent.

Example Sentences:

  • (6) The results, together with the known geometry of the enzyme, indicate that active site probes in the dodecamer are widely separated and that energy transfer occurs from a single donor to two or three acceptors on adjacent subunits.

  • (17) The other three oncogenes namely c-K-ras, c-H-ras and c-myc, were not detected in these two carcinomas or the non-cancerous liver tissue adjacent to the carcinomas.
  • (18) The bony elements of both adjacent vertebral bodies are secondarily involved.
  • (19) In two cases that showed punctate or linear low density structures adjacent to the distal side of the tumor nodules to the porta hepatis, a daughter nodule was detected by CT at 6.5 and 9.2 months, respectively, after the appearance of the low density structures.
  • (20) If a tear is found, remove all unstable meniscal fragments, leaving a rim, if possible, especially adjacent to the popliteus recess, and then proceed to open cystectomy.

Anticlinal


Definition:

  • (a.) Inclining or dipping in opposite directions. See Synclinal.
  • (n.) The crest or line in which strata slope or dip in opposite directions.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The Cl'--N1 distance, the chi CN torsion angle and the glycosidic conformation are 1.464 (8) A, -130.0 degrees and -anticlinal for molecule A and 1.506 (8) A, -168.9 degrees and -antiperiplanar for molecule B, respectively.
  • (2) The PMB foreshadowing the highly curved cell plates in meristemoids I of the mesoperigenous process, as well as in meristemoids I and II of the mesogenous one, are apposed only on one anticlinal wall and therefore do not encircle the nucleus or traverse the cell.
  • (3) In wild-type leaves the first sign of differentiation of the ligular region is a series of specialized anticlinal divisions in the adaxial epidermis.
  • (4) By using the technique of time-lapse cinemicrography, we have been able for the first time to directly examine the division planes of 8-cell blastomeres during fourth cleavage, and find that there are three, rather than two, major division plane orientations; anticlinal (perpendicular to the outer surface of the blastomere), periclinal (parallel to the outer surface of the blastomere), and oblique (at an angle between the other two).
  • (5) This stage ends when a row of cells in the preligule region divides more rapidly in both transverse and longitudinal anticlinal planes.
  • (6) The liguleless-1 homozygote shows no alteration in this overall pattern of growth, but does show distinct alteration in the anticlinal division pattern in the preligule region.
  • (7) In agreement with previous NMR studies and with classical potential calculations, the STO-3G* results indicate that both the gauche (phi = 53.1 degrees) and anticlinal (phi = 141.9 degrees) conformations are thermally accessible.
  • (8) The anticlinal divisions preceding ligule formation are altered in the mutant; therefore, the gene acts early in development, before the periclinal divisions, and possibly during basipetal vascularization.
  • (9) Moreover, it was found that the anticlinal wall of the epidermal cells is not bead--thickened, but cuticular peg formed by cuticle.
  • (10) In the crystal, the molecule adopts a conformation in which one of the two hydroxymethyl fragments is synplanar to S and the other is anticlinal to S. Although the two fragments are otherwise equivalent, the C-C-O bond angles in the two hydroxymethyl fragments are significantly different from each other [106.7 (3) and 110.7 (3) degrees].
  • (11) A new method is used to assess orientation of anticlinal division planes during development and to determine a division index based on recent epidermal cross-wall deposition.
