What mineral is found in bone other than calcium?
Phosphorus is another mineral found in bone, along with calcium. It plays a crucial role in bone structure and strength.
In newborn infants the medullary cavity and all areas of spongy bone contain yellow bone marrow?
Yes, that is correct. In newborn infants, the medullary cavity and all areas of spongy bone contain yellow bone marrow, which is mainly made up of fat cells. As the infant grows, red bone marrow gradually replaces the yellow bone marrow in these areas.
Which bone would contain significant amounts of red bone marrow in an adult?
in adulthood, the red bone marrow is in the shafts of most long bones.
Which bone contain red bone marrow?
As children, nearly all of our bones contain red bone marrow, but this gradually gets replaced by yellow marrow as we grow older. As adults, red bone marrow is found mainly in the axial skeleton (skull, spine and rib cage) and girdles (pelvis and shoulders) and at the ends (epiphyses) of the humerus and femur.
What is found in the spaces of the spongy bone?
The spaces between the trabeculae do contain red or yellow marrow. This depends on a person's age and on which bone it is.

What type of bone tissue to contain marrow?
Bone marrow is primarily found within cancellous (spongy) bone tissue. This type of bone has a porous structure that allows for the accommodation of bone marrow, which is responsible for producing blood cells. In contrast, compact bone, which is denser and forms the outer layer of bones, does not contain marrow. Both types of bone are essential for overall skeletal function, with cancellous bone playing a critical role in hematopoiesis.
Does the end of a long bone contain yellow marrow?
No it contains red marrow. Red marrow is found in spongy bones
Do short irregular bones have large marrow cavities?
No, they contain bone marrow (between their trabeculae), but no marrow cavity is present.
How does the marrow in the medullary cavity compare to the marrow in the spongy bone?
The marrow in the medullary cavity is primarily composed of yellow marrow, which stores fat, while the marrow in the spongy bone is red marrow where blood cells are produced. Yellow marrow is found in long bones, whereas spongy bones contain red marrow in their trabeculae.
