Yes, denser bones are typically heavier than hollow bones. Dense bones have a higher mineral content, which increases their weight, whereas hollow bones are lighter due to their reduced mass and internal voids, making them more suitable for flight in birds and other lightweight structures. The trade-off between density and weight serves different functional purposes in various species.
