The periosteum is the tough, vascular membrane which covers the surface of a bone, except for the articular cartilage. The periosteum contains the blood vessels which supply nutrients to the bones enabling them to regenerate.
The periosteum is a fibrous sheath that covers bones. It contains the blood vessels and nerves that provide nourishment and sensation to the bone.

Bones
While most tissues have a Endo, Peri, and Epi covering. Bone simply has an endosteum and periosteum. Some older texts will refer to the periosteum as an epiosteum. The periosteum is found enveloping bones with the exception of the articulating joints. The periosteum contains a fibrous outer layer and a cellular inner layer containing progenitor cells.
It is true that bones are covered and lined by a protective tissue called periosteum. The inner layer is made up mostly of osteoclasts and osteoblasts.
The periosteum a membrane with a fibrous outer layer and a cellular inner layer. The periosteum isolates the bound surrounding the tissue, provides a route for the circulatory and nervous supply and actively particiapates in bone growth and repair. The endosteum an incomplete cellular layer, lines the marrow cavity. This layer which is active during bone growth, repair, and remodeling, covers the trabeculae of spongy bone and lines the inner surfaces of the central canals.
If you're taking the class I think you are, according to your notes and other sources the answer would be either the endosteum or the periosteum
My dictionary give this definition - - the normal investment of bone, consisting of a dense, fibrous outer layer, to which muscles attach, and a more delicate, inner layer capable of forming bone.

As the mollusks grows the shell around it grows to accommodate the larger size. There are three layers to a shell, a proteinaceous periosteum, a prismatic layer, and an inner pearly layer.
