Difference between active transport and passive transport

Active and Passive Transport Definition Active and passive transport are the two main biological process which plays an important role in supplying nutrients, water, oxygen, and other essential molecules to cells and also by removing waste products. Both active and passive transport works for the same cause, but with different movement. Active transport requires chemical energy because it is the …

December 30, 2020March 15, 2020 by Sagar Aryal

Difference between Quantitative and Qualitative Data

Quantitative and Qualitative Data Definition Qualitative data is data concerned with descriptions, which can be observed but cannot be computed. On the contrary, quantitative data is the one that focuses on numbers and mathematical calculations and can be calculated and computed. So, for the collection and measurement of data, any of the two methods discussed above can be used. Although both have …

25 differences between plant cell and animal cell (plant cell vs animal cell)

July 9, 2020February 22, 2020 by Faith Mokobi

Plants and animals are made up of millions of cells and these cells have several similarities and differences. Considering that they are both eukaryotic cells, which means they have a true nucleus, that is enclosed and separated from other organelles by a nuclear membrane, is a crucial factor that defines their modes of multiplication. They have similar reproduction processes of …

Genomics and Proteomics Genomics and proteomics are closely-related fields. The main difference between genomics and proteomics is that genomics is the study of the entire set of genes in the genome of a cell whereas proteomics is the study of the entire set of proteins produced by the cell. Key Differences (Genomics vs Proteomics) S.N. Character Genomics Proteomics 1. Definition Genomics is the study …

July 8, 2020August 3, 2018 by Sagar Aryal

Differences between cilia and flagella Cilia and flagella are cytoplasmic processes extending from the cell surface. The cell organelles are similar but are differentiated based on their size, number, function and/or mode of beating. S.N. Character Cilia Flagella 1. Definition Cilia are short, hair like appendages extending from the surface of a living cell. Flagella are long, threadlike appendages on the surface of a …

21 Difference between O antigen and H antigen (O vs H antigen)

July 8, 2020August 2, 2018 by Sagar Aryal

Differences between O Antigen and H Antigen

Difference between O Antigen and H Antigen The surface structures of bacteria have considerable antigenic heterogeneity. Often these antigens are used as part of a serologic classification system for the bacteria. The classification of the 2000 or so different Salmonellae is based principally on the types of the O (LPS side chain) and H (flagellar) antigens. The antigenic type of …
