What would be a good definition? Medically. I can't find it in my book.

Holding

The Kizzy · Post by **The Kizzy** » Sun Jul 31, 2005 1:20 pm

like to hold back? Thats what I think, I always second guess myself

Harrison · Post by **Harrison** » Sun Jul 31, 2005 1:20 pm

Involuntary withholding of bodily wastes or secretions that are normally eliminated. By definition...

As in 'Finawin's retention by the school system was shortened abruptly'.

That wasn't nice, Rust, he was trying to help

If you break down what he said he makes himself look stupid by that post.

Ok you're on the internet asking a question on a message board when it takes about 3 seconds to find it on google.

Yah I pretty much second this.

Seriously there has to be an online medical dictionary?

Or look in your textbook.

she wont accept textbook answers, Darcler. She wants us to understand what we are talking about and not just recite a meaning from a textbook. No easy A's here, we have to study our asses off.

You really didn't know a non-textbook definition for retention? Comes from the word retain, as in hold back

The Kizzy · Post by **The Kizzy** » Mon Aug 01, 2005 7:50 pm

really? thanks.

Darcler · Post by **Darcler** » Mon Aug 01, 2005 8:07 pm

Take the book definition and reword it.

Sorry, I skim when I read.

Why wouldnt a medical textbook have a word needed for class in it? Craziness.

The Kizzy · Post by **The Kizzy** » Mon Aug 01, 2005 8:30 pm

Its a comprehensive exam, so not only what is in our books, but what she lectures on. Thanks for the help, I have it now.

Captain Insano · Post by **Captain Insano** » Mon Aug 01, 2005 8:36 pm

Man college sounds like such a pain in the ass. I am glad I dropped out to start my own company. When someone doesn't like my definition for a word they get fired post haste!

retention is what 1/3rd of women lose when they are over 40

This wasn't even mentioned on the test. What a rip. The closest thing was Ischemia which is the holding back of blood to a part of the body
