| homoplastic | Similar in form and structure, but not in origin. Origin: homo-+ G. Plastos, formed (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| homoplastic graft | <haematology> Grafts between two or more individuals allogeneic at one or more loci (usually with reference to histocompatibility loci). As opposed to autograft and xenograft. (18 Nov 1997) |
| homoplasty | <surgery> The replacement during surgery of a damaged organ or damaged tissue in an individual by an allograft - a donor organ or tissue from a genetically dissimilar member of the same species. Synonym: homoplastic graft. (09 Oct 1997) |
| homoplasy | Organs or other bodily structures within different species which resemble each other and have the same functions, but which did not have a common ancestral origin and development. Instead, the parts arose via convergent evolution and are thus analogies. (09 Oct 1997) |
| homopolar generator | <physics> A direct-current generator in which the poles presented to the armature are all of the same polarity, so that the voltage generated in the active conductors has the same polarity at all times. A pure direct current is thus produced without commutation. (09 Oct 1997) |
| homopolic | <biology> In promorphology, pertaining to or exhibiting that kind of organic form, in which the stereometric ground form is a pyramid, with similar poles. See Promorphology. Origin: Homo- + pole. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| homopolymer | <chemistry> A type of polymer (large molecule which consists of a chain of similar smaller molecules called monomers) where all of the monomers are the same thing. For example: a polypeptide which consists entirely of the amino acid lysine linked end to end, instead of many different amino acids linked end to end, would be a homopolymer. (09 Oct 1997) |
| homopolymer tailing | A lab technique where a nucleic acid homopolymer (a long chain of the same nucleotide over and over) is attached to the end of a piece of DNA as a part of DNA cloning. It is especially useful in cDNA cloning to get the cDNA inserted into the cloning vector -- a nucleic acid homopolymer which contains the complementary nucleotide to the cDNA tail is attached to the vector, which then pairs with the tail on the cDNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| homopolysaccharide | <biochemistry> A polysaccharide made up of only one kind of simple sugar. (09 Oct 1997) |
| homoproline | Dihydrobaikiaine; 2-piperidinecarboxylic acid; saturated picolinic acid;the l-isomers of the d1-and d6-dehydropipecolic acids are intermediates in the catabolism of l-lysine; pipecolic acid accumulates in disorders of the peroxisomes. Synonym: homoproline, pipecolinic acid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| homoprotocatechuic acid | (3,4-Dihydroxyphenyl)acetic acid;an isomer of homogentisic acid found in urine; a degradation product of l-tyrosine, l-dopa, and hydroxytyramine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| homopter | <zoology> One of the Homoptera. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| homoptera | <zoology> A suborder of Hemiptera, in which both pairs of wings are similar in texture, and do not overlap when folded, as in the cicada. See Hemiptera. Origin: NL, fr. Gr. The same, like + wing. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| homopteran | <zoology> An homopter. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| homopterous | <zoology> Of or pertaining to the Homoptera. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| hominoid |
A superfamily of anthropoids consisting of apes and humans. Hominoids have a shoulder structure adapted for climbing and hanging, lack a tail, are generally larger than monkeys, and have the largest brain to body size ratio among primates.
