The correct term is homologous, referring to biological structures which have the same root origin, frequently as a sign of evolution. Bat and bird wings, forelegs of horses and other four-legged vertebrates, whales, etc. all share the same structure in a manner which if you trace back far enough is logically a sign of divergent macroevolution.

What I was looking for is specifically homology applied to human genitalia, because I had seen studies referencing that 50% at least or something of the major elements of the male and female genitalia are considered homologous to each other because sexual differentiation is not something that happens immediately in fetal development (thus why there are intersex conditions which have people assigned female at birth with XY chromosomes, another gene prevented the expression of the male traits).

The main one I was looking for is that the clitoris is homologous to the glans of the penis. I still like isomorphic, but I’m not a biologist.

just searched “what’s the term for isomorphic genitalia” and everything was NOT the right type of search results

BEHOLD AND BASK IN THE SUN LAMP WITH ME. Anyways. Day 4 of prelim planning. Managed to chat quick with second professor for prelim, so that part is done. Finished my slides on interpolator issues to present for group meeting and I assume I explained Lanczos interpolation well enough since there weren't any clarifying questions (I still don't fully understand it).

Optimistic goals for the rest of the evening:

Read through some papers for to solidify project ideas (I found some good articles!)

Overthink how I'm going to present my ideas to my advisor

physicists will literally write a whole essay in the subscript

Okay so pros and cons of first semester of grad school:

Got basically exactly what I needed to feel like I’m actually understanding E&M well

Got to present at a conference!!

Cons:

… Haven’t been paid yippee thank you university bureaucracy

What the hell is statistical mechanics

oh well. at least there's research into topics no one but me gives a fuck about
