| Apr 17, 2015 at 16:48 | comment | added | SmugDoodleBug | Also, note the answer provided by "fileunderwater". His answer makes note of the fact that there exists a specific and technical difference between the terms. If I ask why a Histone scaffold is not called a Solenoid, that is a valid question with a basis formed by the terminology set by the scientific community. In other words, it's not a matter of "english language and usage". They have essentially asked whether or not there is a difference between the renal system and the kidney. | |

| Apr 17, 2015 at 10:52 | comment | added | SmugDoodleBug | I disagree with Chris. Questions on technical terminology are a perfect fit here. For example, what if the reason behind the terminology is based on historical events. Doesn't the history of biology still matter on this forum? | |
