Key Difference – Capsid vs Envelope Virus (also called virion) is an infective particle composed of nucleic acid molecule covered with a protein capsid. Viruses show living as well as non-living characteristics. Two major component of a virus particle are viral genome and the protein coat. The viral genome is packaged inside the protein […]
Key Difference – Myofibril vs Muscle Fiber There are three types of muscle tissues; cardiac muscles, skeletal muscles and smooth muscles. Each type has a specific structure and role in the muscular system. Smooth muscles make organs such as bladder, and stomach. Cardiac muscles contract and pump the blood throughout the body. Skeletal muscles […]
Key Difference – Ectoplasm vs Endoplasm Protozoa are single-cell eukaryotic organisms. They resemble animal cells and contain major organelles and the cell nucleus. Protozoan’s cytoplasm has two distinct areas called ectoplasm and endoplasm. The outer layer of the cytoplasm is known as the ectoplasm. The inner layer is known as the endoplasm. The terms […]
Key Difference – Minisatellite vs Microsatellite Repetitive DNA is the nucleotide sequences repeating over and over again in the genome of organisms. Repetitive DNA accounts for a significant fraction of genomic DNA, and there are three main types named tandem repeats, terminal repeats and interspersed repeats. Tandem repeats are the highly repeated sequences which […]
Key Difference – Oncogenes vs Proto Oncogenes Cells divide by mitosis and meiosis. Gametes are formed by meiosis, and somatic cells are produced by mitosis. The cell cycle is a highly regulated process which results in new cells or daughter cells from the mature cells. Different types of regulatory proteins are involved in the […]
Key Difference – PT vs PTT Blood coagulation is the process which prevents excessive bleeding after an injury. When a blood vessel is injured, platelets in the blood create a temporary plug at the site of injury to stop bleeding. However, it is not strong enough to stop bleeding. Hence, blood coagulation cascade activates […]
关键的区别——APTT和PTT PTT(部分Thromboplastin Time) is a measure used to determine the blood coagulation time to diagnose bleeding problems. PTT test reveals the integrity of intrinsic pathway and common coagulation factors involved in blood coagulation. It evaluates the coagulation factors XII, XI, IX, VIII, X, V, II (prothrombin), and […]
Key Difference – Micropropagation vs Somatic Cell Hybridisation Clonal propagation is a technique which produces a large number of genetically identical plants through asexual propagation. Micropropagation is one type of clonal propagation. Micropropagation can be defined as the technique which produces a large number of progeny plants from stock plants through modern plant tissue […]
Key Difference – Endotoxin vs Pyrogen Pyrogen is a substance that induces fever after released into the blood circulation. They are produced as the products of microbial metabolic processes. Pyrogens are produced by microorganisms such as bacteria, moulds, and yeasts. Viruses and other metabolic products also act as pyrogens. Endotoxins are an important type […]
Key Difference – Toxin vs Toxoid A toxin is a substance that is poisonous. Toxins are produced during the biological processes of living organisms. They are inherently toxic and immunogenic. Toxicity of the toxins can be altered or inactivated, and vaccines can be made from toxins to treat diseases; these are known as toxoids. […]
