Difference Between Micro-Evolution Vs Macro-Evolution

January 30, 2019 By Rachna C 1 Comment

Micro-evolution refers to the alteration in a gene pool of the population over time, resulting in small changes of an organism in the same species. On the other hand, Macro-evolution refers to the alteration in organisms, and these changes gradually give rise to completely new species, which is different from their ancestors. The genetic change in the scale of descent over time or heritable change in a population of an organism; brought up by the process like genetic drift, mutations, gene … [Read more...]

Difference Between Renewable and Non-Renewable Resources

January 15, 2019 By Rachna C 2 Comments

The main points of distinction between Renewable and Non-Renewable resources are the amount at which they are used, and the rate of exhaustion, their costs, effects on the environment.

Difference Between Vascular and Non-Vascular Plants

January 7, 2019 By Rachna C Leave a Comment

Vascular plants or tracheophytes are known for their proper organization of the systems, and bearing flowers, green leaves, stems, roots, woods, and branches, on the contrary, Non-vascular plants or bryophytes do not perfectly fit with these features. Examples of Conifers, Ferns, flowering, and non-flowering plants are examples of vascular plants, while Mosses, Liverworts, and Hornworts are examples of non-vascular plants. But most importantly the difference lies in the presence of the … [Read more...]

Difference Between Point and Frameshift Mutations

December 30, 2018 By Rachna C Leave a Comment

The changes in the single base or nucleotide in the nucleotide sequence and thus changing its complementary base also it is called as point mutations, while when there are insertions or deletions of more than one base pair in the nucleotide sequence it is known as frameshift mutations. Mutations can be defined as any kind of change in the nucleotide sequence or genetic code, which altering the gene structure as well as the amino acids and the proteins too. These mutations occur in the DNA … [Read more...]

Difference Between Bacteria and Virus

December 4, 2018 By Rachna C Leave a Comment

Bacteria are said to occupy the large domain of the prokaryotic cell, while the virus is known as minor infection causing agent. Secondly, bacteria reproduce by themselves through asexual method whereas virus needs a host cell to replicate as they lack cellular machinery but consist of DNA and RNA. When people fall ill, the first thing that struck to their mind is about any contamination, related to bacteria, fungi or virus. This routine is typical in all age of peoples, as these terms like … [Read more...]

Difference Between Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressures

November 21, 2018 By Rachna C Leave a Comment

When the muscles of the heart contracts it is known as systolic, whereas when the heart muscles relax it is known as diastolic. At the time of systole the blood pressure increases, but at the time of diastole, the blood pressure decreases. These are the two types of blood pressure, controlled by the beating of the one's heart. The heart is the organ which provides oxygenated blood to all tissues, organs and other body parts. For pumping the blood the heart contracts and relax continuously and … [Read more...]

Difference Between Parenchyma, Collenchyma and Sclerenchyma Cells

November 13, 2018 By Rachna C Leave a Comment

Parenchyma cells are the type of living plant cells, which are known for healing and repair mechanism, and food storage. Collenchyma cells are known for providing mechanical support to the plants, by protecting the delicate inner part of the plant. Sclerenchyma cells are the matured dead cells and are found in wooden part or hard stem of the plant. Likewise the humans, who have bones to support their body structure, plants also have certain specialized tissues which help them, by providing … [Read more...]

Difference Between Hibernation and Aestivation (Estivation)

October 17, 2018 By Rachna C Leave a Comment

The state of inactivity and a low metabolic process performed by the animals during the winters is known as Hibernation. It is also known as winter sleep. On the contrary, when animals take rest in shady and moist place during summer, it is called Aestivation or Estivation. Aestivation is also known as summer sleep. The importance of these sleep is mainly related to the conservation of energy of one's body, survival during the extremes temperature, scarcity of food and water, etc. These sleep … [Read more...]

Difference Between Plants and Animals

October 10, 2018 By Rachna C 1 Comment

The first thing which clicks on one's mind while discussing plants is that they have the ability to prepare their food with the help of sunlight, water and air, along with the support of the green pigment known as chlorophyll which is found in all green plants. On the other hand, animals are known for their well-developed body and it's organ system like nervous, reproductive, digestive, respiratory, etc. Animals are also considered to be immensely susceptible or sensitive to any … [Read more...]
