The "larger" bones in the body are located in the extremities, such as the femur, tibia and fibula in the lower extremities, and the humerus, radius and ulna in the upper extremities.

In the centre cavities of all the bones in your body.

It is spongy. it is red when your a child, and turns yellow when your an adult. Bone marrow is the spongy tissue in the cavities of the bones. It is the blood cell 'factory'.
