What's the difference between disjunct and dispunct?

Disjunct


Definition:

  • (a.) Disjoined; separated.
  • (a.) Having the head, thorax, and abdomen separated by a deep constriction.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) However, no mutagenic effects of amitrole were observed either in the sex chromosome non-disjunction test (females reared on medium containing amitrole at 10 ppm) or in the sex-linked recessive lethal test (males reared on medium containing amitrole at 10 ppm).
  • (2) Meiosis is too complex to have arisen at once full blown and a stepwise scheme is proposed for its evolution, where each step is believed to have provided an immediate selective advantage: (1) The first step in this tentative sequence is the development of a haploidization process by means of a rapid series of mitotic non-disjunctions, turned on under conditions where haploidy is favored.
  • (3) This synchronization of dissimilar perceptions brings together disjunctive and conjunctive categories dominated by such coordinate conjunctions as "and... and", in the living diachronic discordance.
  • (4) Both sets of conditions lead to the induction of mutation to antibiotic resistance, mitotic gene conversion, crossing-over and mitotic chromosomal non-disjunction.
  • (5) Such presynaptic activity was still evident on nerve terminals disjuncted from the synapse by enzymatic treatment prior to incubation in the conjugate.
  • (6) In studies on non-disjunction, detailed genetic analysis of the induced changes is possible, and these may shed light on the mechanisms involved.
  • (7) It is concluded that further studies in twins are necessary to prove the not yet solved problems of non-disjunction and double ovulation.
  • (8) By the same test technique, primary non-disjunction and chromosome loss, the M-type was studied in the eight sub-lines.
  • (9) The possible assoication between altered sequence of centromere disision and non-disjunction needs further confirmation.
  • (10) Analysis of the segregation of a marker chromosome indicated that sister chromatid loss (1:0 segregation) and sister chromatid non-disjunction (2:0 segregation) contributed equally to chromosome missegregation.
  • (11) BIK1 function is required for nuclear fusion, chromosome disjunction, and nuclear segregation during mitosis.
  • (12) Two mutants due to gene conversion but no mutants due to non-disjunction were detected.
  • (13) The present study confirms the increase in meiotic errors with age of mother; moreover, increasing age of the father seems to enhance non-disjunction in spermatogenesis.
  • (14) Such regions, termed "Disjunction Regulator Regions" (DRR), have been implicated in the regulation of X-chromosome segregation (Goldstein, P., The synaptonemal complexes of Caenorhabditis elegans: Pachytene karyotype analysis of the Dp 1 mutant and disjunction regulator regions.
  • (15) As genetic endpoints dominant lethality, chromosome aberrations (detachments) and non-disjunction were studied.
  • (16) This suggested that the white, cycloheximide resistant, leucine requiring colonies arose by mitotic non-disjunction and not only by two coincident mitotic crossing over events.
  • (17) Since in the trisomic cell line of the father and the son the extra chromosome 21 seems to be the same, a predisposition toward mitotic errors (non-disjunction or anaphase lagging) may be postulated, leading to the recurrent gain or loss of a specific chromosome 21.
  • (18) A review of the reproductive histories of five cases with trisomy 9pter yields 9q21 or 22 indicate that the balanced translocation mothers of these infants may have as high as a 23% chance of producing a chromosomally unbalanced offspring due to 3:1 disjunction.
  • (19) The frequency of satellite association of two different acrocentric variants in two trisomic mongols was studied taking in consideration the possible relationship of these chromosomes in the etiology of non-disjunction events.
  • (20) These observations indicate a high degree of mitotic instability and thus raise the question of the effect of premature centromeric disjunction on mitotic instability of dicentric chromosomes.

Dispunct


Definition:

  • (a.) Wanting in punctilious respect; discourteous.
  • (v. t.) To expunge.
