The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between Polyteny and Polyploidy. Difference # Polyteny: 1. Homologous chromosomes undergo somatic pairing. 2. The products of polyteny remain attached to one another. 3. Polyteny produces hundreds of copies of the same chromosome. 4. Polytene chromosomes are visible in the interphase nucleus. 5. Polytene cells cannot multiply. They are destined to [...]
The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between Chromatin and Chromosomes. Difference # Chromatin: 1. It is uncondensed part of nucleoprotein complex. 2.

The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between Cilia and Flagella. Difference # Cilia: 1. The number of cilia per cell is usually very large (300—14000). 2. They are smaller (5—20 (µm in length). 3. Cilia usually occur throughout or major part of the surface of a cell. 4. They beat in a co-ordinated rhythm either simultaneously (isochronic [...]
