| vertebrae | example of irregular bone |
| Long portion of the bone, Shaft, a hollow tube made of hard, compact bone, hence a rigid and stong structure light enough in weight to permit easy movement. | diaphysis |
| Core, the hollow area inside the diaphysis of a bone, contains soft yellow bone marrow | medullary cavity |
| Bone ends, red bone marrow fills in small spaces in the spongy bone composing the epiphyses | epiphyses |

| trabeculue, osteocyte | Spongy bone |
| a extremely narrow tubular passage or channel in compact bone | canaliculi |
| ring of calcified matrix surrounding the Haversian canal | concentric lamellae |
| thin layer, as of bone | lamellae |
| space or cavity (ie. contains bone cells in bone) | lacuna |
| bone cell | Osteocyte |
| bone absorbing cell | osteoclast |
| bone forming cell | osteoblast |
| needlike threads of spongy bone that surround a network of spaces | trabeculae |
| located at the ends of bones, contain red bone marrow | spongy bones |
| lays down bone matrix; builds bone | osteoblast |
| maintains bone | osteocyte |
| tears down bone | osteoclast |
| bone disease in which there is an excessive loss of calcified matrix and collagenous fibers from bone | osteoporosis |
