Describe the microscopic features of the osseous tissue that help long bones withstand compressive forces without breaking?

Osseous tissue, or bone, features a dense matrix composed of collagen fibers and mineral salts, primarily hydroxyapatite, which provide strength and flexibility. The arrangement of osteons, or Haversian systems, within compact bone allows for efficient load distribution and resistance to compressive forces. Additionally, the presence of trabecular bone in the interior of long bones creates a lightweight yet strong structure that effectively absorbs and redistributes stress. These microscopic adaptations enable long bones to withstand significant compressive forces without fracturing.
