Socorro Music Theory:Diff.between dominant 5 & dom7 (19) Music Th:Diff.between dominant5 & dom7 26 Jun 02

I have been learning a lot by reading some old threads on music theory (I love music theory, BTW).

Might someone here be able to give me a clear explanation of why the term "dominant" is used (confusingly for me) for both chords with a flatted 7th, and for the 5th scale degree? Eagerly awaiting Mudcat wisdom, with much appreciation...
