Chapter 6 & 7 outline skeletal system: major differences between bone and cartilage tissue: Matrix properties on bones are calcium salts and collagen. Matrix properties for cartilage are water, protein, elastic fibers. Cartilage-avascular: axial skeleton includes bones of the: Skull, vertebral column and rib cage: appendicular skeleton includes bones of the: Provide support and stability: flat bones- thinnest, flat, and a bit curved (e. g. , sternum, most skull bones, purpose-protection d.
