Copulate


Definition:

  • (a.) Joined; associated; coupled.
  • (a.) Joining subject and predicate; copulative.
  • (v. i.) To unite in sexual intercourse; to come together in the act of generation.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Using allozymes as the genetic probe, data are presented which show that wild Drosophila buzzatii females and males engaged in copulation mate at random.
  • (2) The inhibition is desappears if placed under copulation conditions during a full cycle.
  • (3) Circular cuts which surgically isolated the medial basal hypothalamus (MBH) from the remainder of the brain did not prevent copulation 4 to 24 h later, but did block reflex ovulation.
  • (4) Eight rats of the PCPA group and only two of the vehicle, started to copulate.
  • (5) Incubation of normal pig lymphocytes in serum samples collected from 10 sows immediately before, and at daily intervals after mating with a vasectomized boar significantly elevated the rosette inhibition titre (RIT) of a standard antilymphocyte serum in 6 animals on the first but not on the 2nd and 3rd day after copulation.
  • (6) Duration of copulation in mixed combinations of D. athabasca is determined by the male.
  • (7) In Rhodotorula, peroxisomes are characterized by the same "bean" configuration and paired arrangement imitating "copulation" as mitocondria.
  • (8) On average, copulation lasted 27.2 s and was completed in flight.
  • (9) The surface membrane enzyme activity disappears from the zygote shortly after copulation and at the same time lysosome-like bodies start to appear in the cytoplasm.
  • (10) There was no seasonal fluctuation in copulative activity.
  • (11) Since courtship song increases a females' receptivity to copulation, the frequency of mating within a short observation period was used as a measure of the ability of mutant females to distinguish between singing males and males that were unable to sing.
  • (12) Copulations with other adults males also occurred during all cycle phases, but were most frequent peri-ovulatory.
  • (13) Copulation occurred more often on the occasion of the first attempt by the male.
  • (14) In the second experiment, intact females copulated twice with a male: once when they were able to hear and once when they were temporarily deafened with a medical ear mold.
  • (15) The gene products are secreted into the male duct and transferred to the female copulant during copulation.
  • (16) Pregnant C3H mice were exposed to teratogenic doses of cyclophosphamide (CPA), on the 11th day after copulation.
  • (17) Thiazide-type diuretics also produce erectile dysfunction in rats and interfere with normal copulation.
  • (18) Morphine administered rats showed a loss of weight, hypertrophy of the adrenals, decreased weight of accessory sex organs, low sperm count, and decreased copulation rate.
  • (19) La Crosse virus was detected in the bursa of females after induced copulation, and disseminated infection was shown to occur occasionally.
  • (20) Mangabeys spend 47% of activity observations feeding, 27% moving, and the remainder of the activity observations is accounted for by grooming, playing, vocalizing, copulating, etc.
