Heterogeneity is a diverseness of constituent structure.

Heterogeneity or heterogeneous may also refer to:

Data analysis

[edit]

Biology and medicine

[edit]
  • Heterogeneous conditions in medicine are those conditions which have several causes/etiologies
  • A heterogeneous taxon, a taxon that contains a great variety of individuals or sub-taxa; usually this implies that the taxon is an artificial grouping
  • Genetic heterogeneity, multiple origins causing the same disorder in different individuals.
  • Allelic heterogeneity, different mutations at the same locus causing the same disorder.

Chemistry

[edit]
  • A heterogeneous reaction, a reaction in chemical kinetics that takes place at the interface of two or more phases, i.e. between a solid and a gas, a liquid and a gas, or a solid and a liquid
  • A heterogeneous catalysis, one in which the catalyst is in a different phase from the substrate

Ecology

[edit]
  • Heterogeneity in landscape ecology, the measure of how different parts of a landscape are from one another.
