bug is nothing but non-functionality to functionality and defect is nothing but if a problem accures once the application is hanged to the clint so bug life cycle and defect life cycle is not some they are totally different

Bug can be defined as application error and Defect can be defined as the one which is deviated from requirement .when the Life cycle comes its like same we raise a Bug and that will be logged in to Tracking tool ,will be assigned to Concern person and resolves the issue ,then Retest and Close or Reopen the Bug .The same Cycle will proceeds for Defect ,but The defination wise it is different .

NO!!!

Both are not Same

Bug: An "Bug" in a application/software, does not affect the whole application in terms of running.

Defect : Total application/software is Defect. (means, Entire application is "defect") error in running too.

Ya exactly both are same.Bug is equal to defect. Actuaaly defect means manifestation of an error.

Bug: Its a virus/bacteria/mistake/error that have occured in a Software/application.
         We (Bug/Issue Testers) are testing the application by using Test Cases.
         

Defect: Its a... sorry! Whole application/software does not result the actal result, means Sanity and Smoke Tests FAIL, which is the main purpose.

How we test a system which does not produce/give the Expected Result?

If i'm wrong please quote

Yes Bug life cycle & defect life cycle are same. Here we need to understand one point. The terms Bug & defects are same. Bug is used by proffessionals where as defect is used by normal people.

As far as the life cycle goes( bug & defect) both follow the same life cycle.
However Bug and defect are not same.

Bug is a faultmistake in a program which that prevents it from behaving as intended

Defect is non compliance to the requirement. 

ex:
Bug : Application crashes when login button is pressed

Defect : Size of a text field is defined as 10 characters in requirement. However
the application accepts 12.

A human being make an error, which produces a defect (fault,bug) in the code in software or a system or in a document. If a defect in code is executed the system will fail (failure)

This is according to ISTQB. This means bug and defect are same. 

so the answer to the question is "Yes"
