Allotropes of an element can have very different properties from each other (graphite and diamond, for example, are both allotropes of carbon).

一种元的同体可能彼此具有非常不同的性质(例如，石墨和金刚石都是碳的同体)。

Whether such allotropes exist remains to be seen.

这种同体是否存在还有待观察。

The boffins behind it think that new physical forms of the element, known as allotropes, may offer ways around both the partial-combustion and the toxicity problems.

研究员认为，这种元的新物理式，即同体，可能会提供解决部分燃烧和毒性问题的方法。

Very reactive form the other allotropes, black and red phosphorus, are not as reactive and are much, much easier for us to handle.

与其他同体， 如黑磷和红磷相比， 白磷非常活泼， 而黑磷和红磷则不那么活泼，且更容易由我们来处理。

In a work titled Allotropy of Mine, Daniela Brill-Estrada, an artist from Colombia, confronts viewers with her body's carbon content.

来自哥伦比亚的艺术家丹妮拉·布里尔-埃斯特拉达（Daniela Brill-Estrada）在一件名为《我的同体》的作品中，向观众展示了她身体的碳含量。
