What's the difference between humerus and tertial?
Humerus
Definition:
(n.) The bone of the brachium, or upper part of the arm or fore limb.
(n.) The part of the limb containing the humerus; the brachium.
Example Sentences:

(4) The tendons of insertion of the latissimus dorsi and the teres major muscles and the tendon of origin of the long head of the triceps brachii muscle were united, forming a conjoint tendon that attached to the infraglenoid tubercle of the scapula and the lower part of the anatomical neck of the humerus adhering to the articular capsule of the shoulder joint.
(5) A report is given on a small-for-date male infant showing the following symptoms: bilateral aplasia of humerus, radius, and ulna, shortened femora, bilateral cleft lip and cleft palate, stigmata of dysmorphism, and notably; simple helix formation of the ear, simian crease, clinodactylia, bilateral clubfoot deformity, hypospadia, thrombocytopenia, micrognathia, and contractures in the knee joints.
(6) For the sternum, humerus and ilium-ischium, however, ossification in A2 fetuses increased to the levels observed in the PF and C groups.
(7) A popping phenomenon was observed between the coracoacromial ligament and the greater tuberosity of the humerus, which was covered by the rotator cuff, and the coracoacromial ligament was resected with a rongeur under endoscopic visualization in all shoulders.
(8) The authors report 7 cases of septic and aseptic pseudoarthrosis in the humerus, with or without tissue loss, treated with the Ilizarov apparatus.
(9) The muscle had a normal appearance and origin from the common tendon arising from the medial epicondyle of the humerus and from the surrounding intermuscular septa.
(10) Dispersed cell cultures were established from the articular cartilage of the proximal portion of the humerus of young pigs.
(11) A case is described of haemangioma of the proximal end of the humerus which simulated a giant cell tumour on radiography.
(12) The appendicular skeleton (53%), the humerus (13%), and the femur (23%) were most frequently affected.
(13) Experience with 150 cases of fresh femoral fractures and more than 80 cases of non-union of the femur, the tibia, the humerus and the forearm, demonstrates that thorough familiarity with the instrumentation and the pitfalls of the technique, as well as the correct clinical indications of the method are critical to the achievement of good results.
(14) The allometric relations of diameter and length of humerus, ulna, femur, and tibia of 108 specimens, from 63 different breeds of dogs and 12 specimens of wolves, were calculated by means of model II of regression or major axis method.
(15) Other effects of cadmium administration included erythema of the limb, an extensive protrusion of the humerus, and in some cases atypical differentiation of regenerates.
(16) There was an associated fracture of the greater tuberosity of the humerus, which required open reduction and internal fixation.
(17) Pathological fractures of the humerus are mostly due to skeletal metastases or to malignant bone tumours.
(18) The malformation of the humerus parallels the radius defect severity.
(19) Three-point bending tests indicated that a 1-wk spaceflight impeded the maturation of bone strength and stiffness, with the effects more pronounced in the tibia than in the humerus.
(20) Eighteen patients with nonunions of the humerus were treated by the Ilizarov method at the General Hospital in Lecco, Italy, between 1982-1989.
Tertial
Definition:
(a. & n.) Same as Tertiary.
Example Sentences:
(1) A great variability in the operculum form, in the number of tertial sulci situating on it, in its linear dimensions and superficial area has been stated.
(2) This probably results from the selection during evolution of such variants of amino acid sequences, which are able to provide the functional variability of antigenic determinants, but keep invariant the tertially structure of protein.
(3) Tumor necrosis factor (TNF, also called TNF-alpha) and lymphotoxin (LT, TNF-beta) have 32% homology in their primary structures, and it has recently been clarified that they also have closely related tertially structures.
(4) These results suggest that the tertial structure change of the cleavage site leads to production of unprocessed insulin proreceptors.
(5) The nhp fraction of a smaller molecular weight has a smaller content of alpha-helix (8%) and the greatest polarity of the environment of tryptophan residues; the molecules of this fraction may have a loose tertial structure.
