What's the difference between lobule and subdivision?

Lobule


Definition:

  • (n.) A small lobe; a subdivision of a lobe.

Example Sentences:

  • (15) The present results suggest that the SBCs project to specific areas in the cerebellar lobules.
  • (16) The findings suggest that the basic pattern of projection proper to each spinocerebellar tract is consistent in all lobules of termination.
  • (17) The low-threshold region from which saccadic eye movements could be evoked with currents less than 10 microA was confined to lobule VII in two monkeys and it included a posterior part of lobule VI (lobule VIc) in another monkey.
  • (18) We report the connections of cerebellar cortical lobule HVI in the rabbit.
  • (19) It was hypothesized that pathogenic Pasteurella spp and other microorganisms in nasal secretions transfer from the nasopharynx into the lungs by draining along the tracheal floor into ventral bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli, and that pasteurella endotoxin, formed in infected lobules, thromboses and occludes lymphatics, capillaries, and veins and thereby causes ischemic necrosis.
  • (20) The effect of a preliminary hepatic washing with saline before liver fixation either by perfusion or immersion was compared to the effect of saponin, a membrane-permeabilizing agent, in order to ascertain which procedure is best to obtain a homogeneous distribution of albumin-containing hepatocytes in the hepatic lobule.

Subdivision


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of subdividing, or separating a part into smaller parts.
  • (n.) A part of a thing made by subdividing.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Other fusiform cells of the cPVN are oriented in a rostral-caudal plane and are situated more medially in this subdivision.
  • (2) Hypertrophy is restricted to subdivisions of the inferior olive included in recurrent cerebello-mesencephalic-olivary circuits.
  • (3) No substance P binding sites were present in the central region of the parvocellular subdivision or the solitary tract.
  • (4) This histochemical difference corresponded to more subtle differences in Nissl and myelin staining patterns, and suggests further structural subdivisions of potential functional significance.
  • (5) The purpose of the present study was to develop methods for routine identification of the non-compacta subdivisions in the macaque monkey.
  • (6) They were found predominantly in the first subdivision of the neck segment, which suggests that propulsion of the glomerular filtrate is a primary function of this part of the renal tubule.
  • (7) We demonstrate how FST increases with the degree of subdivision among populations.
  • (8) Ducts of the lateral prostate (LP), a ventrolateral subdivision of the DLP, initiated branching morphogenesis between 1 to 5 days after birth.

  • (12) A chronological subdivision of the swallowing act is needed for a step-by-step analysis.
  • (13) Of the cytoarchitectonic subdivisions of S1, area 2 projects most heavily upon area 5 and area 3b the least, and there is a reversal in the antero-posterior dimension with more posterior parts of S1 projecting to more anterior parts of area 5.
  • (14) Experiments using the methods of anterograde and retrograde axonal transport and anterograde degeneration show that each subdivision has a unique pattern of connections with the midbrain.
  • (15) While the functional significance of the seams remains unknown and their specific composition clearly requires further study, it is likely that they represent important functional (e.g., viscoelastic) or biological (e.g., nutritional) subdivisions of ligament substance.
