Bone | Cartilage | |
(A) | Matrix occurs in the form of concentric lamellae | Matrix occurs in the form of homogenous mass (i.e., lamellae are absent) |
(B) | The matrix of bones is hard and non-pliable. | Matrix of cartilage is solid and pliable and resists compression |
(C) | Bone cells (osteocytes) are present in spaces called lacunae. | Cartilage cells (chondrocytes) are present in spaces called lacunae. |
(D) | Growth in bones is bidirectional. | Unidirectional growth occurs in cartilage. |
