What's the difference between heteronym and meaning?

Heteronym


Definition:

  • (n.) That which is heteronymous; a thing having a different name or designation from some other thing; -- opposed to homonym.

Example Sentences:

  • (13) It is therefore argued that the amount of heteronymous I a facilitation can indeed be used to assess the amount of ongoing presynaptic inhibition exerted onto heteronymous I a fibres from the quadriceps muscle to soleus motoneurones.
  • (14) Stimulation of homonymous or heteronymous pairs of two forelimb nerves of both sides evoked generally a distinct spatial facilitation of the excitatory and late inhibitory effects, while the specific early IPSPs to FDHL motoneurones were not facilitated.
  • (15) Metabolites produced by (static) muscle contractions stimulate group III and IV muscle afferents, which activate gamma-motoneurones projecting to both homonymous and heteronymous muscles.
  • (16) When BC or SP nerves were stimulated at 1.5-4 times threshold (T) for their motor axons, no short-latency heteronymous reflexes could be identified in most neck muscles.
  • (17) Homonymous sprouting displays strict specificity, regeneration does not and heteronymous sprouting represents an intermediate form in which cells are recruited from adjacent motor neuron pools in the segment of the spared innervation.
  • (18) On the other hand, no change was recognized in the slow depression which was caused by a group I volley of the heteronymous common peroneal nerve and was regarded as the presynaptic inhibition.
  • (19) The present heteronymous reflex, acting between limb segments, is modulated coincident with ongoing contraction level in the target muscle.
  • (20) These relationships were qualitatively similar for homonymous and heteronymous connections.
