Both are calcite (crystalline calcium carbonate) formations in caves. . Stalactites grown down from the cave roof: "C" for ceiling, and it hangs on tight! .

Structure that goes all the way from the cave's ceiling to the floor?

A stalactite is a structure that hangs from the ceiling of a cave and is formed by minerals dripping down, while a stalagmite is a structure that rises from the floor of a cave and is formed by minerals deposited from drips falling from the stalactite. When a stalactite and a stalagmite eventually meet and grow together, they form a column.
