It is that the knight can jump over pieces and move in an L and the bishop can’t jump over pieces and moves diagonally

Knight can

A bishop moves diagonally, while a knight moves in L-shaped. Bishops are better in open positions (when there are several files open or semi-open and no barriers for the bishops), while the knights are better in closed positions. In short, bishop is better than knight in an endgame.

'Although the Knight is generally considered to be on a par with the Bishop in strength, the latter piece is somehat stronger in the majority of cases in which they are opposed to each other.' - Capablanca

i will say bishop because it moves farther

As the game progresses more and more pieces are removed from the board, the power of knights and bishops change. when it comes to the bishops as more pawns come off the stronger they become because lines and files, diagonal's open. When pawns are removed as the game proceeds knights lose there out-posts. Bishops are generally worth 3.5 points instead 3 like the knight. An exception that doesn't define the rule is good knight vs bad bishop or vice versa where domination can occur either or a color complex or by taking away all the knights jumps. The knight can dominate the bishop if in the endgame pawns are on one side of the board and they are fixed in a way that the bishop has no targets.
