Prepotent
Definition:
(a.) Very powerful; superior in force, influence, or authority; predominant.
(a.) Characterized by prepotency.
Example Sentences:
(1) Distal stimuli emanating from the female or pups induce proximity by provoking orientation, attention and arousal; the meaning of these stimuli is largely learned by conditioned associations during the initial executions of the behavior, although odors may have a prepotent influence for some individuals.
