  • (a.) Clear or manifest to the understanding; plain; evident; obvious; known; palpable; indubitable.
  • (a.) Appearing to the eye or mind (distinguished from, but not necessarily opposed to, true or real); seeming; as the apparent motion or diameter of the sun.

  • (16) Pedigree studies have suggested that there may be an inherited predisposition to many apparently nonfamilial colorectal cancers and a genetic model of tumorigenesis in common colorectal cancer has been proposed that includes the activation of dominantly acting oncogenes and the inactivation of growth suppressor genes.
  • (17) At 100 microM-ACh the apparent open time became shorter probably due to channel blockade by ACh molecules.
  • (18) For SP and NKA the decrease was apparent in all brain regions and both in the right and left hemispheres.
  • (19) Glucocorticoids have been shown in in vitro systems to inhibit the release of arachidonic acid metabolites, namely prostaglandins (PGs) and leukotrienes, apparently, via the induction of a phospholipase A2 inhibitory protein, called lipocortin.
  • (20) The authors examined an eye obtained post-mortem from a patient with chronic granulomatous disease of childhood and clinically apparent chorioretinal scars.

Coherent


Definition:

  • (a.) Sticking together; cleaving; as the parts of bodies; solid or fluid.
  • (a.) Composed of mutually dependent parts; making a logical whole; consistent; as, a coherent plan, argument, or discourse.
  • (a.) Logically consistent; -- applied to persons; as, a coherent thinker.
  • (a.) Suitable or suited; adapted; accordant.

Example Sentences:

  • (5) He told journalists he was concerned about the risk that government departments were not acting coherently because of a lack of energy and leadership.
  • (6) For amineptine the total body clearance and mean residence time were accurate and precise with eight volunteers, but only four volunteers showed such coherent data for the slope of the elimination curve, beta, and half-life.
