Development


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of developing or disclosing that which is unknown; a gradual unfolding process by which anything is developed, as a plan or method, or an image upon a photographic plate; gradual advancement or growth through a series of progressive changes; also, the result of developing, or a developed state.

  • (n.) The act or process of changing or expanding an expression into another of equivalent value or meaning.
  • (n.) The equivalent expression into which another has been developed.
  • (n.) The elaboration of a theme or subject; the unfolding of a musical idea; the evolution of a whole piece or movement from a leading theme or motive.

Potentiality


Definition:

  • (n.) The quality or state of being potential; possibility, not actuality; inherent capability or disposition, not actually exhibited.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Intrathecal injection of zopiclone potentiated morphine antinociception, while the intracerebroventricular injection of zopiclone failed to enhance morphine antinociception and the intracerebroventricular injection of flumazepil to antagonize the intraperitoneal-zopiclone-induced increase in morphine antinociception.
