Difference between Animal testing on invertebrates and Caenorhabditis elegans

Animal testing on invertebrates vs. Caenorhabditis elegans

Most animal testing involves invertebrates, especially Drosophila melanogaster, a fruit fly, and Caenorhabditis elegans, a nematode. Caenorhabditis elegans is a free-living (not parasitic), transparent nematode (roundworm), about 1 mm in length, that lives in temperate soil environments.

Similarities between Animal testing on invertebrates and Caenorhabditis elegans

Animal testing on invertebrates and Caenorhabditis elegans have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Apoptosis, Molecular biology, Nematode, Nervous system, RNA interference.

Apoptosis

Apoptosis (from Ancient Greek ἀπόπτωσις "falling off") is a process of programmed cell death that occurs in multicellular organisms.

Molecular biology

Molecular biology is a branch of biology which concerns the molecular basis of biological activity between biomolecules in the various systems of a cell, including the interactions between DNA, RNA, proteins and their biosynthesis, as well as the regulation of these interactions.

Nematode

The nematodes or roundworms constitute the phylum Nematoda (also called Nemathelminthes).

Nervous system

The nervous system is the part of an animal that coordinates its actions by transmitting signals to and from different parts of its body.

RNA interference

RNA interference (RNAi) is a biological process in which RNA molecules inhibit gene expression or translation, by neutralizing targeted mRNA molecules.
