| assimilation | 1. The act or process of assimilating or bringing to a resemblance, likeness, or identity; also, the state of being so assimilated; as, the assimilation of one sound to another. "To aspire to an assimilation with God." (Dr. H. More) "The assimilation of gases and vapors." (Sir J. Herschel) 2. <physiology> The conversion of nutriment into the fluid or solid substance of the body, by the processes of digestion and absorption, whether in plants or animals. "Not conversing the body, not repairing it by assimilation, but preserving it by ventilation." (Sir T. Browne) The term assimilation has been limited by some to the final process by which the nutritive matter of the blood is converted into the substance of the tissues and organs. Origin: L. Assimilatio: cf. F. Assimilation. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| genetic assimilation | <genetics> A situation in which a characteristic that is normally expressed only in certain environmental situations becomes fixed in a population so that it no longer requires environmental factors to be expressed. (07 May 1998) |

| Ayala's quotient | The cerebrospinal index when 10 ml of cerebrospinal fluid have been removed. Synonym: Ayala's quotient, spinal quotient. (05 Mar 2000) |
| reaction quotient | <chemistry> A constant represented by the symbol Q which is defined as the product of the concentrations of the products, each raised to the power that corresponds to its coefficient in the balanced equation, divided by the product of the concentrations of reactants, each raised to the power that corresponds to its coefficient in the balanced equation (see the equation in the equations page). at equilibrium conditions Q=K, the equilibrium constant. (09 Jan 1998) |
| respiratory quotient | <physiology> Molar ratio of carbon dioxide production to oxygen consumption. (18 Nov 1997) |
| growth quotient | <biology> The fractional part or percentage of the entire food energy which is utilised for growth in the young animal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Meyerhof oxidation quotient | <biochemistry> An index for the effect of oxygen on glycolysis and on fermentation (i.e., on the Pasteur effect); equal to the rate of anaerobic fermentation minus the rate of aerobic respiration divided by the rate of oxygen uptake. (21 Jun 2000) |
| cognitive laterality quotient | <psychology> Test for difference in cognitive performance of left and right sides of the brain. (21 Jun 2000) |
| P/O quotient | A measure of oxidative phosphorylation; the ratio of phosphate radicals esterified (forming adenosine 5'-triphosphate from adenosine 5'-diphosphate) to atoms of oxygen consumed by mitochondria; normally, the ratio is 3 (starting from NADH). Synonym: P/O quotient. (05 Mar 2000) |
| protein quotient | The number obtained by dividing the quantity of globulin of the blood plasma by the quantity of albumin. Respiratory quotient (R.Q.), the steady state ratio of carbon dioxide produced by tissue metabolism to oxygen consumed in the same metabolism; for the whole body, normally about 0.82 under basal conditions; in the steady state, the respiratory quotient is equal to the respiratory exchange ratio. Synonym: respiratory coefficient. (05 Mar 2000) |

| quotient | 1. <mathematics> The number resulting from the division of one number by another, and showing how often a less number is contained in a greater; thus, the quotient of twelve divided by four is three. 2. The result of any process inverse to multiplication. See the Note under Multiplication. Origin: F, fr. L. Quoties how often, how many times, fr. Quot how many. See Quota.
