homology

However, homology between trunk somites and such head segments has been controversial.

Mathematician Jose Perea of Northeastern University and a team of computational biologists used persistent homology to find periodic biological processes—those that repeat at regular intervals.

Serpell and other scientists tend to characterize this position as an overcorrection, but those who espouse it often begin by questioning the homology between dogs and wolves.

It has some of the same molecular homology as SARS.

“Comparing to both of them and showing strong homology to both of them, we’ve kind of covered the range of what one would see in the mouse cortex,” Lein says.
