What is the difference between a threadworms and a pinworm?
The difference is the life cycle, size of the worm and the kinds of damage each type can do. Pinworms are small worms and are generally more irritating than anything. They cause severe itching around the anus because their life cycle includes the female worm exiting the body and laying eggs on the skin around the anus using a very irritating substance to glue them in place. Roundworm, on the other hand, can grow to be very large and can cause severe damage to the lungs, because their life cycle includes migration through the lungs before they mature. Once mature, they can be a cause of malnutrition and impaction in the gastrointestinal tract. In animals (and humans) that are not their normal species to infect, some roundworms can enter the body and migrate through the eyes, brain, lungs and liver and cause damage to those organs. This is generalized information because there are many types of roundworms and pinworms, but it gives an idea of the differences in the two.

What is the difference between factory and plant?
It might just be semantics. The words can pretty much be interchanged (and often are), but the difference is probably that a factory may have several plants within its manufacturing complex. A car factory might have an engine plant and an assembly plant as well as a bunch more other plants, each of which puts together a subassembly of the vehicle. It is not surprising that if the definition of each work is looked up, the other word is often applied in that definition of that word.

What is the difference between kangaroos and amphibians?
"Joey" is the term for all young marsupials. These animals feed solely on mother's milk for the first 3-8 months of their life, depending on the species.
Kangaroos are herbivores, primarily eating grass and other vegetation, feeding in the early morning and late afternoon/evening towards sunset. Besides grass, they eat young shoots and tender leaves of native shrubs. They enjoy grains as well, but being herbivorous, they do not eat any other animals.
Tree kangaroos eat leaves, and sometimes fruit.
If living in captivity, kangaroos have access to a greater variety of vegetation and grains such as corn. Whilst kangaroos do need water, they can go for some time without direct water, as long as they have enough access to green plants, from which they obtain most of their moisture needs. Without sufficient water, they must move to better grazing grounds.
Smaller varieties of kangaroos such as the musky-rat kangaroo are omnivores, eating fruits, seeds, fungi insect larvae and small invertebrates such as grasshoppers and beetles.
