Difference Between Insect Pollinated and Wind Pollinated Flowers

Last updated on June 13, 2022 by Divanshi G

The insect-pollinated and wind pollinated flowers highly vary in their structural appearance. The flowers are large-sized for insect pollination with vibrant bright colour petals. These flowers possess many nectar glands that continuously release the nectar. For this reason, they have a very sweet and fragrant smell. These all factors make the flower attractive for the insect to come and sit over the flower. On the other hand, there is no need to lure anybody for wind pollination. Thus, … [Read more...]

Difference Between Monocot and Dicot Leaves

Last updated on February 26, 2022 by Divanshi G

We divide angiosperms into two main categories that are monocot and dicot. The leaf acts as a location where photosynthesis occurs for both of them. But both of their leaves vary immensely concerning the structure, characteristics and orientation. The monocot leaf on one side is isobilateral in nature. Whereas the dicot leaves are dorsiventral. The monocot leaves are slender, thin and long with parallel venation. On the other hand, dicot leaves are broader and slightly thick with reticulate … [Read more...]

Difference Between Meristematic and Permanent Tissue

Last updated on November 18, 2021 by Divanshi G

Just like animals, plants too have a unique and complex living pattern that is made possible by the numerous tissues making up their body. Plant tissues are classed as meristematic or permanent based on their structure, location, orientation, and function. Meristematic tissues are made up of identical types of cells that are constantly diving, differentiating, and developing. Contrarily, permanent tissues are composed of cells that have lost their potential of division and are already … [Read more...]

Difference Between Creepers and Climbers Plants

Last updated on July 25, 2021 by Divanshi G

Creepers and Climbers are plants with weak stems and hence cannot grow erect, so, they grow with the support of either an object or horizontally along with the soil. 'Creepers' as the name says, expand horizontally along with the soil, whereas 'climbers' grow erect by holding up any object. There are many examples of these types of plants, like watermelon is creeper while grapes are climbers. Although there are some pants like 'Vine' that can be either creeper or climber. Indeed, many of … [Read more...]

Difference Between Auxin and Gibberellin

Last updated on August 15, 2021 by Divanshi G

The type of plant hormone that controls the cell elongation in plants during phototropism and gravitropism is known as Auxin. Another type of plant growth hormone 'Gibberellin' regulates the seed germination shoot elongation, flower, and fruit maturation. Such important biochemicals that influence plant growth and cell differentiation, tissues, and organs under various conditions are known as Plant hormones. The term was elaborated by the German botanist 'Julius von Sachs' who pointed out … [Read more...]

Difference Between Carpel and Pistil

Last updated on September 5, 2020 by Divanshi G

Carpel and Pistil are the reproductive part of a flower in a plant, and they have a very slight difference between them. As carpel is composed of the stigma, style and ovary, while pistil is the union of the carpels or it can be the single carpel, so we can say that pistil is the fusion of carpels. One can easily distinguish the number of carpels by checking the number of styles. In contrast, the number of pistils can be identified by the presence of the number of ovaries in flower. The … [Read more...]

Difference Between Hydroponics and Aquaponics

Last updated on July 25, 2020 by Divanshi G

When the plants are grown with the medium like sand, gravel or water but without soil is known as hydroponics. On the other hands, aquaponics is considered as the subset of the hydroponics, where the plants are grown in water, (without soil), and nutrients are provided from the by-products of fishes. We all are aware of the process known as photosynthesis, where the plants produce oxygen and energy in the form of glucose, by using sunlight, water and other chemicals, but there is no … [Read more...]

Difference Between Liverworts and Mosses

Last updated on October 29, 2020 by Divanshi G

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...]

Difference Between Plants and Trees

Last updated on June 21, 2021 by Divanshi G

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 Cereals and Pulses

Last updated on June 30, 2022 by Divanshi G

Cereals and Pulses are the types of foods obtained from plants. They serve their individual roles in our bodies, and thus both are equally important in a balanced diet. We consume them in one or the other form daily, which makes it important for us to know more about them. So, let’s start! The cereals are a rich source of carbohydrates and starch. They provide the human body with immense energy so as to perform daily activities. With that, they are high in vitamins like A, B6, and C and … [Read more...]
