What's the difference between atavism and reappearance?

Atavism


Definition:

  • (n.) The recurrence, or a tendency to a recurrence, of the original type of a species in the progeny of its varieties; resemblance to remote rather than to near ancestors; reversion to the original form.
  • (n.) The recurrence of any peculiarity or disease of an ancestor in a subsequent generation, after an intermission for a generation or two.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Down syndrome impresses us as a paradigm of increased developmental variability due to a deceleration of the rate of development (neoteny) with many anomalies of incomplete morphogenesis (vestigia), atavisms, increased morphometric variability with many decreased means, increased variances, and increased fluctuating asymmetry.
  • (2) Through herd mentality, or pure atavism, the leaderless state was drawn back to its one familiar point of reference, the tribal system of its ancestors, and with it the full force of its legacy: a return to the hatred of the past, to intractable rivalries, violent raids and an unquenchable thirst for vengeance.

  • (11) The following phases yielded significant correlations between the ATAV scale and attitudes toward homosexuals (.60, p less than .001), homosexual parenting (.64, p less than .001), other minority groups (.33, .37, p less than .001), capital punishment (-.27 p less than .001), and sexually liberal attitudes (.22, .37, .23, p, less than .025).
  • (12) The dynamic phenomena (such as homodynamy, coadaptation, parallel evolution, orthogenesis, Cartesian transformation, typostrophy, hetermorphosis, systemic mutation, and spontaneous atavism) have no causal explanation, although they are responsible for all directed phenomena in macroevolution.
  • (13) The persisting alpha-fetoprotein synthesis in ataxia-telangiectasia, the morphologic atavisms in Down or trisomy 13 syndromes, and the delayed growth or fetal to adult hemoglobin switch in diabetic embryopathy all exemplify developmental asynchrony.
  • (14) The authors propose the term atavistic to designate a gene producing an ancestral phenotype (atavism).
  • (15) And instead of being a temporary festivity, the ornaments of new nationhood – all those recomposed national anthems and redesigned banknotes, postage stamps and ceremonial uniforms – were hardening into real statehoods with real borders, inspired not by universal enlightenment values, but by the atavisms of ancient religious and ethnic conflicts.
  • (16) This study reports on the development of a Likert scale that measures attitudes toward AIDS victims (ATAV) in five phases.

Reappearance


Definition:

  • (n.) A second or new appearance; the act or state of appearing again.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In the case of the reticulum cell sarcoma, the tumor had not reappeared in some of the animals two months after cessation of treatment.
  • (2) From the third day to the fourth week after this treatment, there was some recovery of the SF rate, and the SCR tended to reappear with a marked slowing down of its habituation.
