What are similarities between tendons and ligamets?
They both have at least one end that joins to a bone. They are both non stretchy and tough.
What are the differences and similarities between ligaments and tendons -?
The similarities of ligaments and tendons are few. First off, both must be working in order for one to be mobile. Also, both are formed from chains of collagen cells. And if one develops a sprain, both a ligament or a tendon could be to blame. The major difference of ligaments and tendons is that ligaments attach a bone to bone, while tendons attach muscle to bone. A ligament is a sort of shock absorber while a tendon is a sort of anchoring point.
Why does comparative embryology show similarities between organisms that do not appear to be similar as adults?
Comparative embryology is the study of the similarities and differences in the embryos of different species. Similarities in embryos are evidence of common ancestry. All vertebrate embryos, for example, have gill slits and tails. All of the animals except for fish, lose their gills slits by adulthood. Some of them also lose their tail. In humans, the tail is reduced to the tail bone. Thus, similarities organisms share as embryos may be gone by adulthood. This is why it is valuable to compare organisms in the embryonic stage
Do flat bones consist of compact bone sandwiched between spongy bone?
The compact bone surrounds the spongy bone and provides structure for the body.
Is the compact bone spongy?
Actually the compact bone isn't spongy at all, the compact bone is a tough layer making the bone neither too rigid or too brittle. So the compact bone is not spongy. Spongy bone, like its name is spongy.
Do flat bones consist of compact bones sandwiched between spongy bones?

Does the stenum has two layers of compact bone with a layer of spongy bone sandwiched in between?
Yes. The sternum is a flat bone. Flat bones have two layers of compact bone with diploe in between the compact bone. Diploe is the layer of spongy bone.
What are the structural differences between compact bone and spongy bone?
The compact bone has a continuous matrix with no gaps while the spongy bone has numerous branching bony plates. The irregular connecting spaces between the plates help reduce the bone's weight in the spongy bone.
What are the spongy pads found between bones?
The bone is constructed of compact and spongy bone, unless you are referring to the cushioning between bone that bend called joints, you would have to be more specific
What does spongy bone lack that compact bone has?

What are differences between compact and spongy bone the can be seen with the eye?
Spongy bone can appear yellow because it has some fat in it, and it is possible to see small holes in spongy bone. Also, spongy bone is not long (like the wrist). Compact bone is usually long (like a femur) and white.
What are the differences between compact and spongy bone?
The compact bone has a continuous matrix with no gaps while the spongy bone has numerous branching bony plates. The irregular connecting spaces between the plates help reduce the bone's weight in the spongy bone.
Does spongy bone or compact bone provide most of the strength to the bone?
Compact bone.
Is compact bone replaced faster then spongy bone?
No, spongy bone regenerates faster.
What are the locations of spongy bone and compact bone kept?
The compact bone is the outer part of the bone, and on the inside is the spongy bone. The spongy bone has small spaces which are filled with red bone marrow and some fat.
