1. (Biol.) The absence of correspondence, or relation, in

their being composed of different elements, or of like
elements in different proportions; variation in structure

partial identity of composition, but different
characteristics and properties; the relation existing

analogous members of different series; as, ethane, ethyl

time a member of a distinct homologous series. Cf.
