rozwarcie

Rozwarcie is a Polish term describing the act or result of opening or widening a space that separates two parts. It denotes both the process of becoming wider and the state of having a larger opening. The word is used in various domains to describe physical gaps, orifices, or separations that have formed or are produced by a deliberate action.

In medicine and anatomy, rozwarcie refers to the widening of natural or pathological openings. Examples include rozwarcie ust (opening of the mouth) or rozwarcie źrenic (pupillary dilation). It can also describe the opening of a joint or cavity during examination or treatment when the tissues or structures are separated to provide access or visibility.

In botany, rozwarcie describes the opening of a flower, fruit, or inflorescence as petals, sepals, or other floral organs separate to expose the inner parts for pollination or fruit development. The term is commonly used in descriptions of flower development and morphology.

In engineering, architecture, or geology, rozwarcie can denote the maximum opening or the width of a gap between components, such as the aperture of a valve, the gap in a hinge, or the separation between rock or soil layers. It is a technical descriptor of clearance, displacement, or fit in mechanical systems.

Figurative uses include broadening of differences or distances between groups, times, or opinions, for example rozwarcie poglądów or rozwarcie międzypokoleniowe, highlighting an increase in disparity or divergence.
