What's the difference between rhombus and tetrahedron?

Rhombus


Definition:

  • (n.) Same as Rhomb, 1.

Example Sentences:

Tetrahedron


Definition:

  • (n.) A solid figure inclosed or bounded by four triangles.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) In order to increase understanding of the control of inositol-1,3,4-trisphosphate kinase activity, the enzyme was highly purified from rat liver by precipitation with polyethylene glycol, MonoQ ion-exchange chromatography, heparin-agarose affinity chromatography, and a novel affinity chromatography procedure that utilized Affi-Gel resin to which InsP6 was coupled (Marecek, J.F., and Prestwich, G.D. (1991) Tetrahedron Lett.
