What's the difference between fecundate and inseminate?
Fecundate
Definition:
(v. t.) To make fruitful or prolific.
(v. t.) To render fruitful or prolific; to impregnate; as, in flowers the pollen fecundates the ovum through the stigma.
Example Sentences:

(13) mortality was high), while the nymphal instars showed an adverse effect on ecdysis and adults which emerged from the treated last nymphal instar were characterized by high mortality, abnormal behaviour and reduced fecundity and viability.
(14) Thus, parity had little effect on fecundity in aging females, whereas the cessation of regular ovulatory cycles during aging greatly decreased both the incidence of fertility and the litter size.
(15) Neither sex nor the age of the host was found to influence the fecundic life span or the survival of female adult worm.
(16) The viabilities and fecundities of these same lines were determined by a segregation test using the SM5 balancer chromosome.
(17) The numbers of vitellogenic oocytes in the ovary during the entire study also suggested that atresia of vitellogenic oocytes does not play a prominent role in determining fecundity.

(19) A possible relation between prenatal exposure to cigarette smoking and adult fecundability in women was explored, with the use of data from a prospective study of 221 North Carolina couples.
(20) The processes, connected with the population's reproduction fecundity and the birth number play a great part in the health formation of different populations.
Inseminate
Definition:
(v. t.) To sow; to impregnate.
Example Sentences:
(1) The percentage of eggs clamped at values more negative than -65 mV, which responded at insemination by developing an If, decreased and dropped to 0 at -80 mV.
(2) Females were killed at various times after the onset of mating or artificial insemination, oviducts were fixed and sectioned serially, and spermatozoa were counted individually as to their location in the oviduct.
(3) By 30 min after insemination, the surface of the egg is relatively smooth.
(4) Homologous insemination in 52 couples during a period of one year yields a conception rate of 38.5%.
(5) The distribution of conceptions after artificial insemination from a donor was studied in 259 conceptions at an artificial insemination clinic and found to be seasonal.
(6) In this study 470 bitches were inseminated; 405 with fresh semen into the cranial vagina and 65 with frozen semen transcervically into the uterus.
(7) The best fertility was obtained by inseminating twice a week with 0.05 ml.
(8) Gilts that had already reached sexual maturity at the time of insemination showed a higher rate of oestrus and better litter size than immature animals.
(9) Sperm mitochondria and flagella were found in the egg 15 min after insemination.
(10) The R. temporaria embryos at stages from insemination to the 1st cleavage division were incubated for 1 tau 0 in different saline solutions.
(11) More cows were inseminated and pregnancy rates were higher within 5 d after treatment with prostaglandin F2 alpha, and interval from prostaglandin F2 alpha to first service was reduced compared with that of control cows.
(12) Individual males held in gallon-sized containers inseminated as many as 10 females.
(13) Fewer multiparous cows given two injections 14 d apart and inseminated after estrus conceived than did cows given two injections and a progesterone intravaginal coil inserted 8 d after the first injection (42 vs. 66%).
(14) The notes upon artificial insemination contain the time, frequency, interval and technique of semen application.
(15) Assessment of DNA normality of motile sperm in the insemination medium may aid prediction of fertilization rates in addition to normal morphology and sperm-ZP binding.
(16) Five of the bulls were used in homospermic insemination studies.
(17) The degree of asynchrony in the oocytes varied and this could explain why some oocytes can be fertilized when inseminated shortly after collection and others not until 8 h or even more after collection.
(18) In the same period, 21 attempts of intra uterine insemination and 14 attempts of intracervical inseminations were made in 5 couples who remained infertile after patent high epididymovasostomy (4) or vasovasostomy (1) and having immature spermatozoa stimulated as previously described.
(19) This study aimed (1) to determine whether the fertilization rate of preovulatory oocytes in patients with abnormal morphology can be improved by increasing insemination concentration at the time of IVF and (2) to evaluate the pregnancy outcome in patients with abnormal sperm morphology.
(20) When inseminated oocytes were incubated in the presence of puromycin, the sperm nuclei were transformed into interphase-like nuclei, but no metaphase chromosomes developed.
