What's the difference between consequence and implication?

Consequence


Definition:

  • (n.) A proposition collected from the agreement of other previous propositions; any conclusion which results from reason or argument; inference.
  • (n.) Chain of causes and effects; consecution.
  • (n.) Importance with respect to what comes after; power to influence or produce an effect; value; moment; rank; distinction.

Example Sentences:

  • (15) The following model is suggested: exogenous ATP interacts with a membrane receptor in the presence of Ca2+, a cascade of events occurs which mobilizes intracellular calcium, thereby increasing the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration which consequently opens the calcium-activated K+ channels, which then leads to a change in membrane potential.

Implication


Definition:

  • (n.) The act of implicating, or the state of being implicated.
  • (n.) An implying, or that which is implied, but not expressed; an inference, or something which may fairly be understood, though not expressed in words.

Example Sentences:
