Definition
A muscle or anatomical structure that pulls apart or separates two parts of the body.
Etymology
From Latin 'diductor', an agent noun derived from 'diducere' (to draw apart), using the '-or' suffix to denote 'one who does' the action. Common in anatomical terminology.
Kelly Says
Clams and oysters have literal 'diductors'—muscles called adductors that close their shells, and when they relax, the diductors naturally pull the shells apart. It's the reason you can sometimes pry open a shellfish!
