What's the difference between equidistant and plane?

Equidistant


Definition:

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

Example Sentences:

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.
