Biology[edit]
- Polymorphism (biology), including:
- having multiple phenotypes within a population; the switch that determines which phenotype an individual displays can be genetic or environmental
- includes Sexual dimorphism, differences in the physiology of a species based only on sex
- Point mutations in the DNA
- having multiple alleles of a gene within a population, usually expressing different phenotypes
- genetic markers based on such allelic variations, including single nucleotide polymorphisms
- Lipid polymorphism, the property of amphiphiles that gives rise to various aggregations of lipids
- Nuclear dimorphism, when a cell's nuclear apparatus is composed of two structurally and functionally differentiated types of nuclei
- Frond dimorphism, differing forms of fern fronds between the sterile and fertile fronds
Computing[edit]
- Polymorphism (computer science), allowing program code to work with various types
- Polymorphism in object-oriented programming, the ability of an interface to be realized in multiple ways
- Dialog polymorphism, changing the form of a computer dialog every time it is presented to a user, in order to prevent habituation
- Polymorphic code, self-modifying program code designed to defeat anti-virus programs or to defeat reverse engineers
Chemistry[edit]
- Polymorphism (materials science), the ability of a solid material to exist in more than one form or crystal structure
Medicine[edit]
- A type of QRS complex seen on an electrocardiogram
Psychology[edit]
- Polymorphous perversity, a concept in psychoanalytic theory

- This study was aimed to investigate the effect of serum interleukin (IL)-1β in the depression trajectory after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) considering two IL-1β polymorphisms: -511C/T or +3953C/T. A total of 969 patients were evaluated within 2weeks after ACS and of these, 711 were followed-up 1

- Prostate cancer incidence and mortality rates are remarkably higher in African-American men as compared to their European-Americans counterparts. Despite these recognitions, precise causes underlying such prevalent racial disparities remain poorly understood. Although socioeconomic factors could acc

- Alzheimer disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by the extensive deposition of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Until recently, only the APOE gene had been known as a genetic risk factor for late-onset AD (LOAD), which accounts for more than 95% of all AD cases. Howeve
