What's the difference between ductile and yielding?

Ductile


Definition:

  • (a.) Capable of being elongated or drawn out, as into wire or threads.

Yielding


Definition:

  • (p. pr. & vb. n.) of Yield
  • (a.) Inclined to give way, or comply; flexible; compliant; accommodating; as, a yielding temper.

  • (4) The data from this experience as well as others previously reported can yield prognostic indicators of survival in cases of accidental hypothermia.
  • (5) Manometric studies with resting cells obtained by growth on each of these sulfur sources yielded net oxygen uptake for all substrates except sulfite and dithionate.
  • (6) The extent of the infectious process was limited, however, because the life span of the cultures was not significantly shortened, the yields of infectious virus per immunofluorescent cell were at all times low, and most infected cells contained only a few well-delineated small masses of antigen, suggestive of an abortive infection.
