Difference between Neurotoxin and Octopus

Neurotoxin vs. Octopus

Neurotoxins are toxins that are poisonous or destructive to nerve tissue (causing neurotoxicity). The octopus (or ~) is a soft-bodied, eight-armed mollusc of the order Octopoda.

Similarities between Neurotoxin and Octopus

Neurotoxin and Octopus have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Action potential, Circulatory system, Gastrointestinal tract, Nervous system, Neuron, Ovary, Tetrodotoxin, Venom.

Action potential

In physiology, an action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific axon location rapidly rises and falls: this depolarisation then causes adjacent locations to similarly depolarise.

Circulatory system

The circulatory system, also called the cardiovascular system or the vascular system, is an organ system that permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment and help in fighting diseases, stabilize temperature and pH, and maintain homeostasis.

Gastrointestinal tract

The gastrointestinal tract (digestive tract, digestional tract, GI tract, GIT, gut, or alimentary canal) is an organ system within humans and other animals which takes in food, digests it to extract and absorb energy and nutrients, and expels the remaining waste as feces.

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.

Neuron

A neuron, also known as a neurone (British spelling) and nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell that receives, processes, and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals.
