What's the difference between pallid and sallow?

Pallid


Definition:

  • (a.) Deficient in color; pale; wan; as, a pallid countenance; pallid blue.

  • (18) We have tested the hypothesis that the basal ganglia initiate some one or several modes of movement by recording the change in discharge frequency of pallidal neurons during visually triggered step and visually paced ramp moves in relation to the visual stimulus onset, the change in the electromyograph (EMG), and the movement onset of trained rhesus monkeys.
  • (19) The bilateral modulatory effects of striatal stimulation may cancel out the circling behavior seen during pallidal stimulation, and cause only head turning.
