Solution

Anidotropic:

-Anisotropic refers to the properties of a material that is dependent on the direction.
-Another condition that can fit the anisotropic definition is the presence of different properties in different directions.
-A different chemical bonding in all directions is also a condition for anisotropy.

Isotropic:

-Isotropic materials or minerals have the uniform properties in all directions; isotropic materials are said to be independent in direction or manner.
-If a material is Isotropic , then it has identical chemical bonds all directions.
