Crenation


Definition:

  • (n.) A rounded tooth on the edge of a leaf.
  • (n.) The condition of being crenate.

Example Sentences:

  • (17) Electron microscopy of the endothelial layer of intimal explants showed dilatations in the intercellular junctions and cellular changes representing contraction--increased prominence of cytoplasmic filaments, nuclear crenation, and cytoplasmic protrusions--at 30 and 60 minutes.
  • (18) Raising this concentration reversibly decreased the degree of crenation.
  • (19) These amphiphiles immediately induced strongly crenated erythrocytes which during incubation shifted to less crenated erythrocytes or to stomatocytes.
  • (20) Osmiophilic granules with a homogeneous core, crenated membrane and narrow submembranous halo predominated in the columnar juxtacortical cells.

Solution


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of separating the parts of any body, or the condition of undergoing a separation of parts; disruption; breach.
  • (n.) The act of solving, or the state of being solved; the disentanglement of any intricate problem or difficult question; explanation; clearing up; -- used especially in mathematics, either of the process of solving an equation or problem, or the result of the process.
  • (n.) The state of being dissolved or disintegrated; resolution; disintegration.
  • (n.) The act or process by which a body (whether solid, liquid, or gaseous) is absorbed into a liquid, and, remaining or becoming fluid, is diffused throughout the solvent; also, the product reulting from such absorption.
  • (n.) release; deliverance; discharge.
  • (n.) The termination of a disease; resolution.
  • (n.) A crisis.
  • (n.) A liquid medicine or preparation (usually aqueous) in which the solid ingredients are wholly soluble.
