Stasis to Metastasis

1. Stasis : from Greek στάσις "a standing still"
Also known as Stasis (pronounced /ˈsteɪsɪs/), or hypersleep, is a science fiction concept akin to suspended animation.

2. Meta : from Greek: μετά = "after", "beyond", "with", "adjacent", "self", is a prefix used in English (and other Greek-owing languages) to indicate a concept which is an abstraction from another concept, used to complete or add to the latter.


3. Metastasis:  the spread of a disease from one organ or part to another non-adjacent organ or part.
