1893 W. N. Parker & H. Rönnfeldt tr. A. Weismann Germ-plasm 34 These kinds of division we may speak of as homœokinesis and heterokinesis, that is, as a division into parts similar or dissimilar to each other with regard to the hereditary tendencies they contain.
1896 E. B. Wilson Cell ix. 305 In the second case (‘heterokinesis’, qualitative or differential division), the daughter-cells receive different groups of chromatin-elements, and hence become differently modified.
