Yes. The sternum is a flat bone. Flat bones have two layers of compact bone with diploe in between the compact bone. Diploe is the layer of spongy bone.
the three layers are.... compact bone spongy bone bone marrow
Haversian systems (osteons) are found in compact bone but not in spongy bone. These structures consist of concentric layers of bone tissue surrounding a central Haversian canal containing blood vessels and nerves.
The four main layers of bones are the periosteum (outer layer), compact bone (dense and hard layer), spongy bone (porous inner layer), and bone marrow (innermost layer responsible for blood cell production).
Yes, all compact bones contain both spongy and compact bone tissue. The outer layer of compact bone provides strength and protection, while the inner spongy bone contains bone marrow and provides flexibility.
The two types of bone are compact bone and spongy bone. Compact bone is dense and forms the outer layer of bones, providing strength and protection. Spongy bone is less dense and found inside bones, providing structural support and flexibility.
No. Flat bones consist of spongy bone sandwiched between compact bone.
The compact bone surrounds the spongy bone and provides structure for the body.

Compact Bone, Spongy Bone, Bone Marrow
spongy and compact
There are 4 layers of a bone the periosteum , compact bone , spongy bone or cancellus , and bone marrow.

Actually the compact bone isn't spongy at all, the compact bone is a tough layer making the bone neither too rigid or too brittle. So the compact bone is not spongy. Spongy bone, like its name is spongy.
diaphysis
The compact bone has a continuous matrix with no gaps while the spongy bone has numerous branching bony plates. The irregular connecting spaces between the plates help reduce the bone's weight in the spongy bone.
