Diaphysis - CORRECT ANSWERS-The shaft or central part of a long bone
Epiphysis - CORRECT ANSWERS-Rounded End of Long Bone at its Joint
Articular Cartilage - CORRECT ANSWERS-Smooth white tissue that covers the end of
bones when they form joints
Epiphyseal Plate/Line - CORRECT ANSWERS-A hyaline cartilage plate in the
metaphysis at each end of a long bone
Medullary Cavity - CORRECT ANSWERS-Central Cavity of the bone shaft where bone
marrow is stored
Compact Bone - CORRECT ANSWERS-( Hard outer part) Compact portion of bone
that consists largely of concentric lamellar osteons
Spongy Bone - CORRECT ANSWERS-A network of irregular shaped sheets and spikes
of bone found under the compact bone
Trabeculae - CORRECT ANSWERS-The spongy spiky open-work that makes up
spongy bone
