What's the difference between monopolize and monopolized?
Monopolize
Definition:
(v. t.) To acquire a monopoly of; to have or get the exclusive privilege or means of dealing in, or the exclusive possession of; to engross the whole of; as, to monopolize the coffee trade; to monopolize land.
Example Sentences:
(1) Recently, competing companies have filed lawsuits alleging that the single-serve coffee giant – and its new brewer – are monopolizing the industry.
(2) This Article links the legal evolution of mandatory medical prescription since 1900 to the police-power's prohibition of alcohol and the opiates as well as to the self-interested monopolization of new drugs by physicians.
(3) The mass-media monopolize an important part of the lay public attention and intellectual energy and yet physicians do not seem very convinced that they must implicate themselves socially and participate in the education of the general public.
(4) In nonindustrial societies, women usually have more easy access to alcoholic beverages; in fact, they often monopolize production and predominate in the distribution system.
(5) The two net negative charges of P group form electric monopoles of a minor battery (myosin head).
(6) Amazon (disclosure: I own a small number of shares) sold many new bestsellers below cost, typically at $10 (OK, $9.99), as "loss leaders" and set off a panic among publishers, which worried that: a) the public was being conditioned to believe the price of all new books should be $10; and b) Amazon was going to monopolize the ebook market.
(7) However, the plumes of steam produced by the discharge have some highly specific features which are due to the fact that the discharge is usually produced using a monopole in an electrolyte.
(8) A lawsuit filed in federal court in Atlanta, Georgia, in February 1982 by two private ophthalmologists and seven prospective patients charges a group of academic physicians with attempting to monopolize radial keratotomy, a surgical procedure for correcting myopia, by labeling it experimental and urging restraint in its use.
(9) The relative phases of the applicators were adjusted by using an implanted monopole antenna connected to an HP network analyser.
(10) A description of the electrostatic interactions between cytochrome c and cytochrome c oxidase, based on the overall monopoles and overall dipoles of the two proteins, could not explain our data.
(11) In anaphase one set of chromatids migrated to the monopole leaving the scattered sister-chromatids behind.
(12) Ethics committees must be concerned with how they arrive at ethical decisions, guarding against political influence or individual monopolization.
(13) Exposures were in a monopole-above-ground radiation chamber with rats in Plexiglas cages.
(14) It examines clinical data to illustrate various ways a client can monopolize a group and how other group members react to this behavior.
(15) All of these applicators operate at 915 MHz and have similar heating patterns because they use the conventional monopole design and the catheters have been approximately scaled to the dimensions of each size applicator.
(16) These distinctive patterns in the distribution of the two classes of afferents can generally be accounted for on the following assumptions: (1) the commissural and associational afferents share a common cytochemical specificity; (2) they compete with each other for the limited number of synaptic sites available upon the proximal portions of the granule cells: (3) the granule cells are generated along two distinct morphogenetic gradients:from the temporal to the septal pole of the dentate gyrus, and from the tip of its dorsal (or external) to the tip of its ventral (internal) blade; and (4) the first fibers to arrive monopolize the majority of the available synaptic sites, and those that reach their target field later, synapse predominantly upon the last-formed granule cell dendrites.
(17) The extension of the monopole-dipole approach to other cytochrome-cytochrome electron transfer reactions is discussed.
(18) Review of the theoretical perspectives of Cartwright, Lazarsfeld and Merton, and Katz suggests that effective uses of mass media for drug abuse prevention must ensure adequate dissemination, maximize positive attention by the target audience (selectivity), encourage positive interpersonal communication, and maximize the principles of monopolization, canalization, and supplementation.
(19) The New Democrats – led by bearded, experienced Thomas Mulcair – have emulated Tony Blair’s New Labour by jettisoning their old-school socialist baggage and veering onto the centre-left terrain previously monopolized by the Liberals.
(20) A practical procedure for the precise determination of electrostatic charges, which are evaluated by fitting the rigorous quantum mechanical molecular electrostatic potential to a monopole-monopole expression, is presented.
