Stratification


Definition:

  • (n.) The act or process of laying in strata, or the state of being laid in the form of strata, or layers.
  • (n.) The deposition of material in successive layers in the growth of a cell wall, thus giving rise to a stratified appearance.

Example Sentences:

  • (6) After allowance for the fact that regression analyses suggested that the proportion of tremolite in dust was probably 2.5 times higher in Thetford Mines, Quebec, than in Charleston, the results from both matched pair and stratification analyses of tremolite fibre concentrations in lung were almost the same as for chrysotile.
