A*pod"o*sis (&unr_;), n. [L., fr. Gr. &unr_;, fr. &unr_; to give back; &unr_; from, back again + &unr_; to give.] (Gram.) The consequent clause or conclusion in a conditional sentence, expressing the result, and thus distinguished from the protasis or clause which expresses a condition. Thus, in the sentence, “Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him,” the former clause is the protasis, and the latter the apodosis.
[1913 Webster]

&hand_; Some grammarians extend the terms protasis and apodosis to the introductory clause and the concluding clause, even when the sentence is not conditional.
[1913 Webster]
