What's the difference between equidistant and grating?

Equidistant


Definition:

  • (a.) Being at an equal distance from the same point or thing.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) We counted all type I fibers and determined type I and II mean fiber areas in eight equidistant sections taken along the length of control and overloaded MG. Increase in muscle weights (31%), as well as in total muscle cross-sectional areas (37%) and fiber areas (type I, 57%; type II, 34%), attested to a significant hypertrophic response in overloaded MG. An increase in type I fiber composition of MG from 7.0 to 11.5% occurred as a result of overload, with the greatest and only statistically significant changes (approximately 70-100%) being found in sections taken from the most rostral 45% of the muscle length.

Grating


Definition:

  • (p. pr. &. vb. n.) of Grate
