/əˈnætɒmɪlɪs/ adjective

Definition

Lacking anatomical structure or incapable of being anatomized; not subject to dissection or analysis.

Etymology

English formation combining 'anatomy' with the suffix '-less' (without/lacking), creating a term for things that don't have or can't be given anatomical form.

Kelly Says

A cloud is anatomiless—you can't dissect it into discrete anatomical structures the way you can with an organism, which is why studying weather requires different tools than studying biology.
