What's the difference between decaying and necrophagous?

Decaying


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Decay

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Q In radioactive decay, different materials decay at different rates, giving different half lives.
  • (2) 4) Parents imagined that fruit drinks, carbonated beverages and beverages with lactic acid promoted tooth decay.
  • (3) In the absence of prostigmine, increasing the concentration of ACh in the synaptic cleft did not change the time constant for decay of end-plate currents.
  • (4) The kinetics of bimolecular decay of alpha-tocopheroxyl free radicals (T) was studied by ESR mainly in ethanol and heptanol solvents.
  • (5) For those synapses that were close to the soma the time constant for decay for the non-NMDA component, which was voltage insensitive, ranged from 4-8 ms. 7.
  • (6) In analyzing the results with any regimen it is important to have long follow-up since late relapses do occur and initial very positive results tend to decay with greater numbers of patients treated.
  • (7) In one normal ear, ten noise trauma ears, 11 Meniere disease ears, and 24 eighth nerve lesion ears to reflexes or reflex decay that were suggestive or retrocochlear lesions were observed.
  • (8) Biochemical, molecular, and immunohistologic studies have identified membrane cofactor protein (MCP) and decay accelerating factor (DAF) on trophoblast cells, which could assist in preventing lysis of the cells by complement-activating maternal antibodies.
  • (9) It has been 40 years since the first community in the United States added a regulated amount of fluoride to its public water supply to prevent tooth decay.
  • (10) This could reflect the existence of a parallel set of synapses with fast decay that serve as a shortterm store.
  • (11) However, clemastine caused a decay in subjects' performance in both Experiments I and II, but only on the tracking task.
  • (12) The nylon group had the second highest amount of induced WTR cylinder at one day, which had decayed to ATR cylinder by five months.
  • (13) The observed signals from germinating seeds of Phaseolus aures and decaying leaves of Eucalyptus are presented to show that the signals have characteristic kinetics and intensity.
  • (14) We develop an analogy between the steric hindrance among receptors detecting randomly placed haptens and the temporary locking of a Geiger counter that has detected a radioactive decay.
  • (15) Left ventricular relaxation rate was measured by calculation of a time constant of left ventricular pressure decay (T) derived from an exponential curve fit to the digitized tip-micromanometer left ventricular pressure signal.
  • (16) Factors increasing presynaptic activity (frequency or number of afferent stimulations) during the induction event did not affect the relative amount of LTP decay.
  • (17) Inhibitor activity decayed with time after radiation (2 Gy) with no activity detected at 6 h even though the cells remained in G2 phase, suggesting that either synthesis or activation of additional components is necessary for recovery from G2 arrest.
  • (18) These results are consistent with the previous observation in HTC cells that the decay rate of ODC activity in the presence of cycloheximide correlated well with the proportion of ODC present as a complex with antizyme, suggesting the ubiquitous role of antizyme in ODC degradation.
  • (19) The outward current decays exponentially with an early and late phase.
  • (20) The decay of acid soluble radioactivity was similar in the two groups, although protein synthesis was lowered by vitamin A deficiency.

Necrophagous


Definition:

  • (a.) Of or pertaining to the Necrophaga; eating carrion. See Necrophagan.
