ChemosynthesisChemosynthesis Chem`o*syn"the*sis, n. [Chemical + synthesis.]
(Plant Physiol.)
Synthesis of organic compounds by energy derived from
chemical changes or reactions. Chemosynthesis of
carbohydrates occurs in the nitrite bacteria through the
oxidation of ammonia to nitrous acid, and in the nitrate
bacteria through the conversion of nitrous into nitric acid.

Formed from a compound word. ``Parasynthetic derivatives.'

Polysynthesis.
Polysynthesis
Polysynthesis Pol`y*syn"the*sis, n. [Poly- + synthesis.]
1. The act or process of combining many separate elements
into a whole.
2. (Philol.) The formation of a word by the combination of
several simple words, as in the aboriginal languages of
America; agglutination. --Latham.
PolysyntheticPolysynthetic Pol`y*syn*thet"ic, a. [Poly- + synthetic.]
Characterized by polysynthesis; agglutinative.
Polysynthetic twinning (Min.), repeated twinning, like that
of the triclinic feldspar, producing fine parallel bands
in alternately reversed positions. Polysynthetic twinningPolysynthetic Pol`y*syn*thet"ic, a. [Poly- + synthetic.]
Characterized by polysynthesis; agglutinative.
Polysynthetic twinning (Min.), repeated twinning, like that
of the triclinic feldspar, producing fine parallel bands
in alternately reversed positions. Polysynthetic twinningTwinning Twin"ning, n. (Crystallog.)
The assemblage of two or more crystals, or parts of crystals,
in reversed position with reference to each other in
accordance with some definite law; also, rarely, in
artificial twinning (accomplished for example by pressure),
the process by which this reversal is brought about.
Polysynthetic twinning, repeated twinning of crystal
lamell[ae], as that of the triclinic feldspars.
Repeated twinning, twinning of more than two crystals, or
parts of crystals.
Twinning axis, Twinning plane. See the Note under Twin,
n. Synthermal
Synthermal Syn*ther"mal, a. [Pref. syn- + thermal.]
Having the same degree of heat.
SynthesesSynthesis Syn"the*sis, n.; pl. Syntheses. [L., a mixture,
properly, a putting together, Gr. ?, fr. ? to place or put
together; sy`n with + ? to place. See Thesis.]
1. Composition, or the putting of two or more things
together, as in compounding medicines.
2. (Chem.) The art or process of making a compound by putting
the ingredients together, as contrasted with analysis;
thus, water is made by synthesis from hydrogen and oxygen;
hence, specifically, the building up of complex compounds
by special reactions, whereby their component radicals are
so grouped that the resulting substances are identical in
every respect with the natural articles when such occur;
thus, artificial alcohol, urea, indigo blue, alizarin,
etc., are made by synthesis.
3. (Logic) The combination of separate elements of thought
into a whole, as of simple into complex conceptions,
species into genera, individual propositions into systems;
-- the opposite of analysis.
Analysis and synthesis, though commonly treated as
two different methods, are, if properly understood,
only the two necessary parts of the same method.
Each is the relative and correlative of the other.
