What's the difference between disjoin and separate?

Disjoin


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To part; to disunite; to separate; to sunder.
  • (v. i.) To become separated; to part.

Example Sentences:

  • (13) In strains containing one normal and any one deletion chromosome, the two chromosomes disjoined in most meioses.
  • (14) In strains containing one deletion chromosome and two normal chromosomes, the two normal chromosomes preferentially disjoined, but in 4-7% of the tetrads the normal chromosomes cosegregated, disjoining from the deletion chromosome.
  • (15) Homology on one arm was sufficient to direct chromosome disjunction, and two chromosomes could be directed to disjoin from a third.
  • (16) Recombination between the two normal chromosomes or between one normal chromosome and the deletion chromosome increased the probability that they would disjoin, although cosegregation of recombinants was observed.
  • (17) The genetic analysis of the exceptions reveals whether nondisjunction has occurred due to failure of the spindle fibres to disjoin chromosomes or attachment of the chromosomes.
  • (18) The pairs disjoin at anaphase and translocate to opposite poles and the interpolar distance increases.
  • (19) Recombination events were found in two families with regular trisomy, one occurring between chromosomes 21 that failed to disjoin at maternal meiosis I, the other prior to a paternal meiosis II nondisjunction.
  • (20) Using the thumb, forefinger and middle finger of the left hand, the skin flap containing the funiculus spermaticus is grasped and dectus deferens is palpated and disjoined.

Separate


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To disunite; to divide; to disconnect; to sever; to part in any manner.
  • (v. t.) To come between; to keep apart by occupying the space between; to lie between; as, the Mediterranean Sea separates Europe and Africa.
