The First Law of the Thermodynamics is related to the conservation of energy, while the Second Law of Thermodynamics argue that some of the thermodynamics processes are impermissible and does not entirely follow the First Law of Thermodynamics. The word 'thermodynamics' is derived from the Greek words, where "Thermo" means heat and "dynamics" means power. So thermodynamics is the study of energy which exists in various forms like light, heat, electrical and chemical energy. Thermodynamics … [Read more...]

The mixture contains two or more substances mixed, but neither chemically as well as not in inexact quantity while compound includes two or more elements combined chemically and in a fixed ratio. For instance, Seawater, Crude oil, Mineral oils, Alloys (Brass, Bronze), etc., are some of the mixtures, Water (H2O), Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2), Sodium Chloride (NaCl), Baking Soda (NaHCO3), etc. are the name of some compounds. As per the classical physics theory, anything that occupies space has mass … [Read more...]

Piles or Hemorrhoids are the swollen veins in the lower part of the anal canal or anus, these are painless. Fissures are very painful, as they are caused due to the tear or cut in the skin near the anus. The fistula is the small opening develops in the skin around the anus, this opening has pus inside it. Most people do not know the exact difference between the three, as they think that if they have certain kind of pain or bleeding in their anal part, it could pile, but few of them know that … [Read more...]

Mitosis has the diploid number of chromosomes and produces two identical daughter cells with 46 chromosomes, on the contrary in Meiosis four genetically distinct daughter cells with each having 23 chromosomes in the human cells are produced which have the haploid number of chromosomes. Secondly, Mitosis occurs in Somatic cells while Meiosis happens in Sex cells or Gametic cells. The above points are the critical one to distinguish between the two, though there are many more to focus, which … [Read more...]

The phenotype is the physical appearance of an organism, while the Genotype is the genetic composition of an organism. Phenotype are observable and are the expression of the genes of an individual. So even the organism with the same species may differ, with a minute difference in their genotype. This is the main difference between the two. We can notice one's hair colour, eye colour, height, weight, skin colour, etc. but cannot look at genes responsible for these characters, so the observable … [Read more...]
