| morphometry | <technique> Method that involves measurement of shape. A variety of methods exist to enable one to examine, for example: the distribution of objects in a 2 D section of a cell and then to use this to predict the shapes and the distribution of these objects in three dimensions.

Plastids or elementary organisms. 2. Organs, homoplastic or heteroplastic. 3. Antimeres (opposite or symmetrical or homotypic parts). 4. Metameres (successive or homodynamous parts). 5. Personae (shoots or buds of plants, individuals in the narrowest sense among the higher animals). 6. Corms (stocks or colonies). For orders 2, 3, and 4 the term idorgan has been recently substituted.

Mortality rate is the death rate. The mortality rate refers to the proportion of all the people who had a procedure, operation, or medical condition who died during the hospitalization. Only the deaths that occurred during the hospital stay are counted. If a patient was transferred from one hospital to another and then died at the second hospital, the death would be counted for the second hospital, not the first. ...
