Compact Osseous Tissue
Contains osteons which involve a central canal, also referred to as the osteonic/Haversian canal. This canal is surrounded by lamellae which are concentric rings of matrix that contain osteocytes, osseous cells, in lacunae, between the rings Lamellae
Lamellae cont.
C: Endosteum D: Periosteum: outer fibrous periosteum in black, inner osteogenic layer in orange) E: Haversian canal (= central canal) H: Osteon I: Osteocytes in lacunae J: Concentric lamellae K: Interstitial lamellae L: Circumferential lamellae Spongy Osseous Tissue
Involves plates called trabeculae, a bundle of fibres aligned on lines of stress, along with irregular cavities containing red bone marrow. The trabeculae allow the bone to withstand stress by providing strength. The irregular cavities containing red bone marrow connect to the canaliculi, allowing for nutrients to be delivered through blood supply. |
