differentia
difference *****

Differentia is that part of the essence which distinguishes one species from another.

Order of subject and object in scientific Russian when other differentia are lacking.

If it does, then the court must ask whether the differential treatment is based on intelligible differentia.

As a genus, it has two differentia of its own, inanimate and animate.

Whether the differentiation is founded on an intelligible differentia (distinguishing feature).

In Scholastic logic, differentia is one of the predicables.

Each science has to do with its own genus, or 'kind', which is divided by 'differentia' into various species.

Boethius arranges differentia through statements, instead of generalized groups as Aristotle does.

The diagram shows that the genus substance to have two differentia, namely, "thinking" and "extended".

Is the discrimination founded on intelligible differentia?

("Intelligible differentia" is defined under the first form of arbitrariness.)

(b) Does the differentia bear a rational relation to the object sought to be achieved by the law in question?

No one thinks explicitly in terms of genus and differentia, and the scholastic rules for definitions.

These propositions would be used in constructing arguments through the "Differentia," which is the second part of Boethius' theory.

Another feature that has been accepted by the courts as constituting an intelligible differentia is Singapore citizenship.

He argues that in determining a reasonable differentia, an ideal approach should extend beyond "mere demonstration of rationality".

But since nothing lies outside of what is predicated of being, there is nothing which can serve as a differentia.

Each science needs to be prefaced by an account, or definition in terms of genus and differentia, of the various species with which it deals.

For example, a human being as a species can be defined as an animal (genus) that can reason (differentia).

However, if no differentia distinguishes them from each other, then there is no sense in which these 'Existents' are not one and the same.

Then, we've described the differentia, the specific properties that make it its own sub-type: it has a hemline above the knee.

Similarly, where an over-inclusive classification is concerned, a rational relation still exists between the differentia adopted and the legislative object.

What is the differentia of the species, that is, the distinguishing characteristic of human being that other animals do not have?

If there is an intelligible differentia, the differentiation is not arbitrary in this sense and it is necessary to proceed to the third stage.
