The key difference between general and systemic pathology is that the general pathology is the basic reaction of cells and tissue in response to abnormal stimuli that govern all diseases. On the other hand, systemic pathology is the study of diseases as they occur within a particular organ system. Pathology is the study of the […]

Difference Between Saturated and Unsaturated Bonds
The key difference between saturated and unsaturated bonds is that a saturated bond has no pi bonds whereas unsaturated bonds always have pi bonds. Chemical bonds are the linkages between atoms. These bonds cause the formation of molecules. There are two major types of bonds; they are the covalent bonds and ionic bonds. However, the […]
Difference Between Back Mutation and Suppressor Mutation
The key difference between back mutation and suppressor mutation is that the back mutation reverses the mutant genotype into the original, normal wild type while the suppressor mutation suppresses the primary mutation by producing the functional protein products inhibited by the primary mutation. Mutation is an alteration of the nucleotide sequence of a DNA molecule […]
Difference Between Copolymer and Condensation Polymer
The key difference between copolymer and condensation polymer is that the copolymers form via copolymerization whereas the condensation polymers form via condensation reactions. A polymer is a giant, macromolecule that contains thousands of repeating units linked to each other via covalent chemical bonding. There are several different forms of polymers. We can classify them according […]
Difference Between Block and Graft Copolymer
The key difference between block and graft copolymer is that a block copolymer has blocks of repeating units whereas a graft copolymer has branches of repeating units. A polymer is a macromolecule that has many repeating units linked to each other via covalent chemical bonds. And, these repeating units represent the monomers that are used […]
Difference Between Nondisjunction and Translocation Mutations
The key difference between nondisjunction and translocation mutations is that the nondisjunction mutation is a mutation that occurs due to the failure in segregation of homologous chromosomes or chromatids during the cell division while the translocation mutation is a mutation that occurs due to the rearrangement of different parts of chromosomes between non-homologous chromosomes. Mutation […]
Difference Between Somatic and Visceral Reflex
The key difference between somatic and visceral reflex is that the somatic reflex occurs in the skeletal muscles while the visceral reflex occurs in the soft tissue organs. A reflex arc is a neural pathway that controls a reflex action. A typical reflex arc has five different components namely sensory receptor, afferent neuron (sensory neuron), […]
Difference Between Cold Porcelain and Polymer Clay
The key difference between cold porcelain and polymer clay is that the cold porcelain clay contains cornstarch and white glue as the major components whereas the polymer clay contains PVC resin and a liquid plasticizer. Both cold porcelain clay and polymer clay are modelling materials. We can use them for making folk-crafts and jewellery. Although […]
Difference Between Polymers and Metals
The key difference between polymers and metals is that the polymers are lightweight materials compared to metals. If we take a ball made of a polymer material such as plastic and a ball made of a metal with the same size, we can observe that the metal ball is heavier than the plastic ball. Therefore, […]
Difference Between SARMs and Peptides
The key difference between SARMs and peptides is that Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators or SARMs are non-steroidal compounds or supplements which act as prohormones and alter the androgen receptors while peptides are short amino acid sequences which are natural or synthetic which aid in muscle building. Muscle building is a practice among most athletes that […]
