One encounters a similar situation in homology theory. Beside singular homology, which is a homotopy invariant, and Čech homology, which is a shape invariant, there exists strong homology, which is a strong shape invariant. In the special case of metric compacta, this homology was introduced by N.E. Steenrod in 1940 and is often referred to as the Steenrod homology.

The diagnostic marks of alkaline excess are asthenicity and aplasticity, while the signs of acid diathesis (except the phosphoric) are sthenicity and plasticity;[…]Aplasticity and asthenicity show a deficiency of acid or an excess of alkalies in the system;
