Strong, elastic bands of connective tissue. Connects bones in a joint.
Joint
Place where 2+ bones meet; allows for body movement when muscles contract.
Spongy bone
Have lots of open spaces. Provides bone either most of its support and structure.

Living material made form minerals and connective tissue. There are 206 bones in a adult body. Stores minerals and make blood. They move with muscles.
Compact bone
No visible openings along the outside.
