Difference Between Liverworts and Mosses

December 27, 2019 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

Liverworts and Mosses are the non-vascular and non-flowering plants that are found in wet and terrestrial environments. Though numerous essential differences lie between them. For instance, Liverwort belongs to the division - 'Marchantiophyta' or often term as'Hepaticophyta', while mosses fall under division - 'Bryophyta'. Secondly, liverworts have thallus or foliose that are green leaf-like arrangement hook-up with the stem, whereas mosses are simple, small and leafy arrangement present … [Read more...]

Differences Between Actin and Myosin

December 11, 2019 by Rachna C 1 Comment

Actin is the collective molecules of protein from which thin bands are formed. On the other hand, Myosin is the group of protein by which thick bands are formed. Actin and Myosin are responsible for various types of cellular movements, and the most striking one is the muscle contraction, that provides the best-model to understand the role of actin and myosin. Now, to know the function of actin-myosin, it is necessary to gather bit information about muscles contraction. The cellular and … [Read more...]

Difference Between Kharif and Rabi Crops

November 25, 2019 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

Kharif and Rabi are the two varieties or group of crops that have been divided based on the season they require to grow. For instance, Jowar, Bajra, Maize, Sugarcane, Cotton, Pulses, etc., are such plants that grow in the rainy season and so-known as Kharif crops. On the contrary, Oats, Wheat, Gram, Barley, etc., are such plants that grow in the winter season and so-termed as Rabi crops. Crops are the plants, grown by the farmers on a large scale, that can be of a same or different kind. … [Read more...]

Difference Between Conductors, Semiconductors and Insulators

November 14, 2019 by Rachna C 2 Comments

Conductors, semiconductors and insulators can be distinguished on the ground of their conductivity and other properties. Conductors like metals show conductivity at room temperature, but as the temperature increases, their conductivity gets reduced. However, semiconductors act as the insulators at low temperature but as the temperature increases so their conducting properties also; however, insulators have no such effect of temperature variations as they do not have the conducting … [Read more...]

Difference Between Plants and Trees

October 31, 2019 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

The initial stage of a grown tree is the plant, so we can say that 'plant may or may not grows into a tree', but vice versa is not true. Among the five-kingdom classification, plants and tree fall into the same kingdom 'Plantae'. This is one of the major kingdoms which includes grass, herbs, shrubs, vines, bushes, mosses, ferns, green algae and trees. Plants and trees are multicellular, eukaryotes. They both have stems, leaves, roots and vascular system for transporting the food and water. If … [Read more...]

Difference Between Apoptosis and Necrosis

October 17, 2019 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

The natural process which leads to the cell death is called as apoptosis, but when the cell death happens due to attack certain external factors like bacteria, virus or fungus, or any toxicity, injury, leads to necrosis. Apoptosis is the self-controlled event that occurs under favourable physiological conditions and the cell itself actively participate in the process. During necrosis, the cell is unable to maintain the homeostasis, which leads to the inflow of water and extracellular ions in … [Read more...]

Difference Between Autosomes and Sex Chromosomes

October 4, 2019 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

The chromosomes, apart from the sex chromosomes, are known as autosomes of an organism. The number of chromosomes varies from one organism to others. In humans, there is a total of 46 chromosomes or in pair of 23. Out of these, 2 are sex chromosome (XX or XY), and 44 are autosomes. Mice have in all 40 chromosomes, out of which 38 are autosomes, and 2 are sex chromosomes. Abnormalities in the chromosomes (autosomes or sex chromosomes) results in the retardation in growth of an organism or … [Read more...]

Difference Between Tyndall Effect and Brownian Motion

September 13, 2019 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

The Tyndall effect explains the phenomenon of scattering of light by the colloidal particles in its path that results in the pattern of bright glowing cones in the fluid. The Brownian Motion is related to the phenomenon of random motion of colloidal particles in the fluid. These are the widespread phenomenon that can be observed easily, but only in colloids as these properties can not be observed in True solutions or Suspension. True solutions are the homogenous mixture of two or more … [Read more...]

Difference Between Anatomy and Physiology

August 22, 2019 by Rachna C 7 Comments

The word 'anatomy' means 'structure', while 'physiology' refers to 'function'. We can elaborate by saying that anatomy is the detailed study of different body parts, their organization, and their interrelationship, but how these body parts and organs play their specific role in a coordinated manner is termed as physiology. An understanding of these terms is not only beneficial to health professionals and their career; instead, it helps us know about your own body and its wellness. Familiarity … [Read more...]

Difference Between Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO)

July 30, 2019 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

Though both the molecules contain carbon and oxygen, the general difference between them lies in their number of oxygen of atoms carried by them; as carbon dioxide (CO2) has one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, while carbon monoxide (CO) has one carbon and one oxygen atom. Carbon Dioxide is naturally present in our atmosphere and as it is excreted out during the process breathing by the animals and humans. On the other hand, Carbon Monoxide is toxic, and it produces suffocation if it builds … [Read more...]
