Rennin is an enzyme, while renin is a hormone, differentiating their type and origins according to the provided reference.
The key difference between Rennin and Renin lies in their classification and where they are produced within the body. Despite their similar-sounding names, they perform distinct functions.
Based on the provided information:
- Rennin is classified as an enzyme.
- Renin is classified as a hormone.
The hint also provides information regarding their origins:
- The reference states that rennin is an enzyme, but its origin is not explicitly mentioned in the provided hint regarding the difference.
- For renin, the reference provides conflicting information about its origin, stating both that it "is a hormone which is produced by the gastric gland" and separately that "Renin is the hormone that is produced by Kidney".
To clearly illustrate the distinctions based on the reference, a comparison table is helpful:
Feature | Rennin | Renin |
---|---|---|
Type | Enzyme | Hormone |
Origin | Not specified in provided hint | Produced by the gastric gland OR produced by Kidney (as stated in the hint) |
While the reference provides a contradiction regarding Renin's origin, the fundamental difference highlighted is their classification as either an enzyme (Rennin) or a hormone (Renin).
