Difference Between Self-Pollination and Cross-Pollination

September 8, 2018 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

The process of transfers of pollen grains from anthers to the stigma of a flower, but when this process is between the flowers of the same plant than the term is called as self-pollination, while when the transfers are between the flowers of the different plant of same species is called as cross-pollination. Secondly, pure line progeny is obtained in the self-pollination. The target of every living organisms is to create their young ones and transfer their characters to them. Pollination is … [Read more...]

Difference Between Simple and Compound Leaves

April 27, 2018 by Rachna C 1 Comment

By comparing the typical examples of the plants and trees like Mango, Guava and Rose, Coriander, we will able to differentiate the simple, and the compound leaves easily. As in simple leaves, there is only single leaf blade and incision, which are so light that does not divide the leaf blade, but in compound leaves the incision is so deep that the leaf blades are divided into leaflets. Each one of us is aware of the importance of plants in an atmosphere as well as for living beings. Even the … [Read more...]

Difference Between Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis

April 5, 2018 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

Cellular respiration takes place in the every living organisms, as it is the simple process of converting oxygen and glucose into carbon dioxide and water and ultimately producing energy for the cells of the body. On the contrary, photosynthesis occurs in green plants, which contain chlorophyll and uses sunlight and water to convert it into energy. These are the two reciprocal process, with the same aim of obtaining energy but by using different methods, different sources and thus giving out … [Read more...]

Difference Between Parallel and Reticulate Venation

March 6, 2018 by Rachna C 1 Comment

In a plant, the veins of the leaf blade or lamina exhibiting the parallel pattern from the base to the tip is known as the parallel venation, on the contrary, when the veins of the leaf blade or lamina in the plants exhibit the web like or net-like pattern on both side of the midrib is known as the reticulate venation. In a leaf, the arrangement of veins is called as venation. The venation architecture is enormously distributed among the diverse species of the plants. The venation has its … [Read more...]

Difference Between Monocotyledons (monocots) and Dicotyledons (dicots)

February 13, 2018 by Rachna C 2 Comments

The seed in the plant having one cotyledon is called as the monocotyledon, while the seed in the plant having two cotyledons is named as the dicotyledon. Ginger, banana, wheat, maize, palm, onion, garlic are few examples of monocotyledonous plants, while rose, groundnut, potato, tomato, pea, eucalyptus, hibiscus are the examples of dicotyledonous plants. Knowing the family of a plant is useful in many ways, as it helps us to know many factors about plant and how will it germinate, what kind … [Read more...]

Difference Between Mitochondria and Chloroplast

September 21, 2017 by Rachna C 2 Comments

Mitochondria are known for generating energy for the cell in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) by using nutrients and oxygen. The chloroplast is present in green plants and few algae, they are known as the place, where the process of photosynthesis occurs. In the cell of the eukaryotes, there are only three organelles, which are bounded by the double membrane structure - the nucleus, the mitochondria, and the chloroplast. There is the higher level of diversity on the surface of the … [Read more...]

Difference Between Tap Root and Fibrous (Adventitious) Root

August 21, 2017 by Rachna C Leave a Comment

The main root (primary root) with other minor side roots, which grow deep into the soil is called Taproot. While the fine, thick hairs like structure, that spread sideways in all the directions is called Fibrous or Adventitious root. Taproot arises from the radicle (embryonic part) of the plants, but the Fibrous root grows from the stem and leaves rather from the radicle. Plants bear parts like stem, leaves, fruits, flowers and most importantly roots. Roots are the underground part, which … [Read more...]

Difference Between Xylem and Phloem

July 27, 2017 by Rachna C 4 Comments

Xylem is the complex, dead and permanent tissue responsible for carrying nutrients and water, whereas phloem is the soft and permanent tissue play its role in transporting the food and other organic material produced by the green parts especially leaves by the process of photosynthesis. Xylem and phloem are the two types of vascular tissues, present in plants and together constitute vascular bundles. Their function is to efficiently transport the materials which can be food, water, nutrients, … [Read more...]

Difference Between C3, C4 and CAM pathway

July 10, 2017 by Rachna C 7 Comments

The assimilation of carbon dioxide from the sunlight, for the process of photosynthesis and then converting it to glucose (energy) synthesizing different product is the key difference between the three. So during the CO2 fixation, when the photosynthetic plants produce 3-phosphoglyceric acid (PGA) or 3- carbon acid as the first product is called C3 pathway. But when the photosynthetic plant, prior going to the C3 pathway, produces oxaloacetic acid (OAA) or 4 -carbon compound as their first … [Read more...]

Difference Between Pollination and Fertilization

June 27, 2017 by Rachna C 2 Comments

Pollination is a process of transferring of pollens from one flower to another. While fertilization is the process after the successful transfer of pollination, which involves the fusion of male gametes and female gametes of plants. Both of these are the natural process. But only flowering plants undergo the process of pollination, while fertilization is the common process of almost all living being. Continuation of life would not have been possible without the presence of plants, as directly … [Read more...]
