In security printing and imaging, these terms can refer to printed deterrents (homologous structures) and printed vs. non-printed deterrents (analogous structures, or convergent evolution). Security printing is the use of digital ...

This process continues throughout the life of the organism, essentially building-up and maintaining the organism’s physical structure faster than natural processes (as governed by the 2nd law) can break it down. ...

Analogous topological structures arise in quantum gravity, but inasmuch as the manifolds involved are multidimensional rather than two-dimensional, higher homology groups play a role as well. These multidimensional manifolds are no ...

Structures that are similar due to evolutionary origin are called homologous. Structures that evolve separately to perform a similar fuction are analogous. Analogous structures are also called convergent strutures which means that they ...

The more flexible and elastic keratins of hair have fewer interchain disulfide bridges than the keratins in mammalian fingernails, hooves and claws (homologous structures), which are harder and more like their analogs in other ...

Glossary of Religion and Philosophy - analogous / homologous structures.

We will briefly discuss the relationship between modular and modulated structures. This will be followed by some considerations about the choice of the reference sublattices in the lillianite homologous series. ...

An example of analogous characters is the wings of the butterfly, bird and bat. The wings all serve the same function but evolved differently so are not similar in structure. Another example is the development of the camera type eye in ...

In both cases, evidence for homology, combined with our intuitive "identification" of analogous structure and/or function, both point to the same conclusion: that the two structures are both analogous and homologous. ...

To date, eight mammalian PI3Ks have been identified, divided into three main classes (I, II, and III) on the basis of sequence homology, structure, binding partners, mode of activation, and substrate preference in vitro. ...
