What's the difference between flagellator and whipper?
Flagellator
Definition:
(n.) One who practices flagellation; one who whips or scourges.
Example Sentences:
(1) Discovery of this vectorhost-parasite system in the Americas, and the localization of promastigote flagellates (leptomonads) in the hindgut of the vector, should assist in clarifying interpretative problems associated with infection of wild-caught flies in studies on leishmaniasis in the Americas and elsewhere.
(2) The 18S data provide the principal signal that supports the more basal divergences, but the data do not unambiguously address relationships among taxa in the clade that includes most colonial flagellates and Chlamydomonas taxa representative of the Euchlamydomonas group (sensu Ettl).
(3) Needless to say, the place is now awash in self-flagellation.
(4) The spermatozoon of the mealybug Pseudococcus obscurus Essig is a filamentous cell (0.25 micro by 300 micro) which exhibits three-dimensional flagellations throughout most of its length.
(5) One month later the patient developed pigmented flagellate streaks on his arms and chest wall.
(6) Flagellation of the lateral flagella depended on the pH of the medium.
(7) Analysis of the moles per cent guanine plus cytosine (GC) content in the deoxyribonucleic acid of representative strains indicated that the peritrichously flagellated groups had a GC content of 53.7 to 67.8 moles%; polarly flagellated strains had a GC content of 30.5 to 64.7 moles%.
(8) A kinetoplast DNA hybridization probe method was used to detect Leishmania within sand flies and to distinguish it from the non-pathogenic flagellate, Endotrypanum.
(9) The flagellates that are most similar in structure to the ciliates are the dinoflagellates and two genera of uncertain taxonomic position, Colponema and Katablepharis.
(10) Thus, the results obtained show convincingly the presence of genetic interchange between flagellates of ChxR100 and CapR2.5 strains.
(11) Xanthobacter flavus 301T (T = type strain) and other strains, including H4-14, both of which were previously described as nonmotile, were reproducibly motile and peritrichously flagellated during the log phase when they were cultured in medium lacking tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates.
(12) The flagellates and the ciliates have long been considered to be closely related because of their unicellular nature and the similarity in the structures of the axoneme of the flagella and cilia in both groups.
(13) Flagellates from the caeca of a diseased hen and a diseased goose were transmitted to 35 specific pathogen-free (SPF) chickens.
(14) Presumably, drug-induced antinuclear antibodies were found in 29%, using Hep II cells and crithidia-luciliae flagellates.
(15) Actin genic regions were isolated and characterized from the heterokont-flagellated protists, Achlya bisexualis (Oomycota) and Costaria costata (Chromophyta).
(16) Ribosomes of Trypanosoma brucei, a parasitic, flagellated protozoan (order Kinetoplastida), were identified on sucrose density gradients by their radioactively labeled nascent peptides.
(17) These samples also contained corncob formations on the surface of supragingival deposits, and flagellated cells with spirochetes within the predominantly Gram-negative flora of the sulcus bottom.
(18) The cytoplasm contained, in addition to tubules and two types of granules, a membrane-associated structure (MAS) that, although less extensive, bears some resemblance to polar membranes observed in flagellated bacteria.
(19) Taxol, a plant alkaloid stabilizer of microtubules, inhibits in vitro the replication of the human pathogenic flagellate Trichomonas vaginalis in a dose-dependent fashion.
(20) Twenty-eight pregnant ewes were inoculated IV with approximately 6 X 10(8) nonclassified, anaerobic, flagellated bacteria (NAFB) that had been isolated from an aborted lamb.
Whipper
Definition:
(n.) One who whips; especially, an officer who inflicts the penalty of legal whipping.
(n.) One who raises coal or merchandise with a tackle from a chip's hold.
(n.) A kind of simple willow.
Example Sentences:
(1) "The spirit of my puritan ancestors was mighty on me," he confessed, as well he might since a great-grand father Hathorne had been one of the judges in the Salem witch trials, and another had been a ferocious whipper of Quakers.
