Q. What is the difference between compact bone and spongy bone?
Answer: They have different arrangement of bone cells
Notes: The cells in the compact bone are packed closely together. This makes the bone very strong. For this reason, compact bone is located outside the bones. The spongy bone cells are dilated, which allows blood-filled canals to run through the spongy bone. The spongy bone is found at the end of long bones.
