Hybridity


Definition:

  • (n.) Hybridism.

  • (20) The probe encoding LHCPII hybridizes to RNAs of 9.5 and 6.6 kb on northern blots of total RNA while the 3'-end probe hybridizes only to the 6.6 kb RNA.

Syncretism


Definition:

  • (n.) Attempted union of principles or parties irreconcilably at variance with each other.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Ethnomedical studies of the Middle East may be enriched by a long-term historical perspective, which takes into consideration the complex syncretism, through time, of both literate and nonliterate medical systems in this region, as well as the tumultuous history of conquest and colonialism in the Middle East.
