relating to polymorphism (any sense), able to have several shapes or forms

Polymorphic redefinition in C++ is achieved by the use of virtual functions.

Literally meaning having more than one form In terms of genes it means that there are several variants (alleles) of a particular gene that occur simultaneously in a population
A term formulated by population geneticists to describe loci at which there are two or more alleles that are each present at a frequency of at least one percent in a population of animals The term has been co-opted for use in transmission genetics to describe any locus at which at least two alleles are available for use in breeding studies, irrespective of their actual frequencies in natural populations See Polymorphism in the MGI Glossary
Polymorphous
varying in shape; associated with waveforms
A function is polymorphic if it performs the same operation on a family of types For example the List length function determines the length of any list without regard to the type of its elements See Also: monomorphic
Some viruses take special measures to make their detection and analysis more difficult E g they do not have signatures, i e do not have any constant section of code In the majority of cases two strains of the same "polymorphic"-virus will not have a single coinciding element This is achieved by encoding the main body of the virus and by modifications of the program-decoder
relating to the crystallization of a compound in two or more different forms; "polymorphous crystallization"
Ability to mutate by changing code segments to look different from one infection to another This type of virus is a challenge for ant-virus detection methods
(Pah-lee-mor-fic): having more than two distinct forms

having or occurring in several distinct forms; "man is both polymorpphic and polytypic"; "a polymorphous god"

catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia
an autosomal dominant inherited heart disorder caused by a mutation in voltage gated ion channels and resulting in arrhythmias. CPVT may cause exercise-induced ventricular arrhythmias and/or syncope occurring during physical activity or acute emotion, but demonstrates no structural problems of the heart. Ventricular tachycardia may self-terminate or degenerate into ventricular fibrillation, causing sudden death without immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The majority of events occur during childhood and more than 60% of affected individuals will have a first episode of syncope or cardiac arrest by age 20
