The key difference between granular and agranular leukocytes is that granular leukocytes have granules in their cytoplasm, but agranular leukocytes lack granules in the cytoplasm. Leukocytes or white blood cells are one of the main types of blood cells. They are spherical in shape and colourless compared to red blood cells. The number of WBCs […]

Difference Between Oxidation Potential and Reduction Potential
The key difference between oxidation potential and reduction potential is that oxidation potential indicates the tendency of a chemical element to be oxidized. In contrast, reduction potential indicates the tendency of a chemical element to be reduced. Oxidation potential and reduction potential are two types of electrode potential values for chemical species given in Volts […]
Difference Between Classical and Nonclassical Carbocation
The key difference between classical and nonclassical carbocation is that classical carbocations have a carbon atom having six electrons in three chemical bonds, whereas nonclassical carbocations have a three-center two-electron structure. A carbocation is a chemical species that is a moiety of an organic molecule. It has a positive charge on a carbon atom. A […]
Difference Between Beryllium and Magnesium
The key difference between beryllium and magnesium is that beryllium atom has two energy levels containing its electrons, whereas magnesium atom has three energy levels containing its electrons. Beryllium and magnesium are two adjacent alkaline earth metals. That means; both these chemical elements are in the same group (group 2), but in different periods, i.e., […]
Difference Between Potash and Polyhalite
The key difference between potash and polyhalite is that the term potash refers to the mineral salts containing potassium, whereas the term polyhalite refers to the hydrated sulfate mineral having potassium, calcium and magnesium ions. Potash and polyhalite are mineral compounds we can find in nature. Both these are water-soluble minerals and are very useful […]
Difference Between Agaricus and Polyporus
The key difference between Agaricus and Polyporus is that Agaricus is a genus of fungi that produces edible as well as poisonous fruiting bodies called mushrooms, while Polyporus is a genus of poroid fungi that forms large fruiting bodies with pores or tubes on the underside. Fungi are eukaryotic microorganisms that have chitin in their […]
Difference Between Forward and Reverse Mutation
The key difference between forward and reverse mutation is that forward mutation is the mutation that alters the phenotype from wild type to mutant while reverse mutation is the mutation that alters the phenotype from mutant to wild type. A mutation is an alteration of the nucleotide sequence of a gene or a genome. Mutation can […]
Difference Between Beta hCG and hCG
The key difference between beta hCG and hCG is that beta hCG is the free form of the human chorionic gonadotropin, while hCG is the total form of human chorionic gonadotropin. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a hormone produced by the placenta of a pregnant woman after implantation. Beta hCG and hCG are two forms […]
Difference Between Porphyrin and Protoporphyrin
The key difference between porphyrin and protoporphyrin is that porphyrin is a group of aromatic chemicals which has four modified pyrrole subunits interconnected to each other, whereas protoporphyrin is a derivative of porphyrin which has propionic acid groups. Both porphyrin and protoporphyrin are deeply coloured chemical species. These are macrocyclic organic compounds which contain several […]
Difference Between Alloantibody and Autoantibody
The key difference between alloantibody and autoantibody is that the alloantibody is an antibody produced against alloantigens, which are foreign antigens introduced by transfusion or pregnancy. Meanwhile, the autoantibody is an antibody that reacts with self-antigens. Antibodies are produced as a result of an immune response. They may reflect the presence, nature and intensity of […]
