What's the difference between hermaphroditic and hermaphroditism?

Hermaphroditic


Definition:

  • (a.) Alt. of Hermaphroditical

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Several additional groups of muscle cells of more limited mass and spatial distribution include the vulval muscles of hermaphrodites, the male sex muscles, the anal-intestinal muscles, and the gonadal sheath of the hermaphrodite.
  • (2) These cells are also present in hermaphrodites, where they have minor structural roles in the rectum.
  • (3) Male sex determination in sporadic, and familial Y-ve XX males and true hermaphrodites is likely to be the result of mutation in an X-linked TDF gene and its consequent escape from the constraints of X-inactivation.
  • (4) Marking with feces was important in hermaphrodite-hermaphrodite interactions.
  • (5) We discuss the benefice of a such therapeutic option in the true hermaphroditism lately diagnosed recording to organic and psychological data.
  • (6) We propose that the wild-type xol-1 gene product promotes male development by ensuring that genes (or gene products) directing hermaphrodite sex determination and dosage compensation are inactive in XO animals.
  • (7) I don't think it is an easy thing to write and expect to be commercial, even if you are from Venus and a hermaphrodite."
  • (8) During induction of the Caenorhabditis elegans hermaphrodite vulva by the anchor cell of the gonad, six multipotent vulval precursor cells (VPCs) have two distinct fates: three VPCs generate the vulva and the other three VPCs generate nonspecialized hypodermis.
  • (9) An XX true hermaphrodite was examined for the presence of Y-specific sequences using Southern-blotting and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques.
  • (10) The hypothesis provides an explanation for the observed bilateral asymmetry of gonadal differentiation in human hermaphrodites in terms of the bilateral asymmetry of growth of human fetal gonads.
  • (11) In true hermaphroditism ovarian or testicular tissue is present in the same patient; in false hermaphroditism female or male organs predominate; and in transsexualism only one way of alteration is possible i.e.
  • (12) The authors report the cases of two new families of true hermaphroditism (4 cases) defined by the coexistence of both testicular and ovarian tissues.
  • (13) A mutation in him-8 IV was identified that severely reduced recombination between the two X chromosomes in hermaphrodites and between mnDp73 and the X chromosome in males.
  • (14) In hermaphrodites, mnDp72 and mnDp73 promoted meiotic X nondisjunction and recombined with an X chromosome in the unc-1-dpy-3 interval at frequencies comparable to that found for X-X recombination; mnDp72(X;IV) also promoted trisomy for chromosome IV.
  • (15) Furthermore, the germ-line specificity of the fem-3(gf) mutant phenotype and the late temperature-sensitive period suggest that, in the wild-type XX hermaphrodite, fem-3 is negatively regulated so that the hermaphrodite stops making sperm and starts making oocytes.
  • (16) An unusual case of hermaphroditism in a 4 to 5-year-old roe is described.
  • (17) and Grassi Milano observed that when the female gonads were cultured without steroid or gonadotrophic hormones at the start of differentiation an hermaphrodite left ovary and a male right one were formed.
  • (18) Loss-of-function mutations in the spe-11 gene in Caenorhabditis elegans result in a paternal-effect embryonic-lethal phenotype: fertilization of wild-type oocytes by sperm from homozygous spe-11 mutant males leads to abnormal zygotic development, whereas oocytes from homozygous spe-11 hermaphrodites when fertilized by wild-type sperm develop normally.
  • (19) In wild-type Caenorhabditis elegans there are two sexes, self-fertilizing hermaphrodites (XX) and males (XO).
  • (20) Six out of 22 can transform XO animals into fertile females or hermaphrodites, whereas the remainder cause partial feminization.

Hermaphroditism


Definition:

  • (n.) The union of the two sexes in the same individual, or the combination of some of their characteristics or organs in one individual.
