Epiphyses. (Diaphysis is the middle part).
You might also be asking the name of the knobby parts on the ends, which articulate with the next bone and make up the joint: those are 'condyles'.

The porous bone found in the ends of long bones is called?
epiphyses
What is the rounded end of the bone called?
Epiphyses is the word used for the distal and proximal ends of long bones. The epiphysis contains red bone marrow.
Which bone has long longitudinal axis and expanded ends?
the femur bone.
What is the anatomical name for the shaft of a long bone and for its ends?
The shaft of a long bone- diaphysis The head(s) of a long bone- epiphysis
What is the gross anatomy of a long bone?
The major anatomical areas of a long bone are: The Diaphysis - The long, slender shaft of the bone that is composed of compact bone and houses the medullary cavity. The Epiphysis - The ends of the bone that are composed of spongy bone. This area is also the location of the growth plates.

What is the bones of the head called?
The head of the long bone is called the Epiphyseal.The long bone constists of a diaphysis and an epiphysis. The ends are epiphysis and the shaft is diaphysis.
What is the rounded end of the bone called?
Epiphyses is the word used for the distal and proximal ends of long bones. The epiphysis contains red bone marrow.
What made up the ends of the bone?
Long bones have spongy bone at the ends, more properly known as cancellous or trabecular bone.
Which bone has long longitudinal axis and expanded ends?
the femur bone.
What is the name of diaphysis ends?
At both ends of a long-bone there would be a bearing shaped protuberance called a 'ball', as in one half of 'ball and socket'.

Where is the spongy bone found?
Spongy bone, which is also called cancellous bone, is found in the inner layer of bones. It is primarily found at the ends of long bones, inside the vertebrae, and proximal to joints.
What is the incorrect alignment of bone ends called?
malunion
What is the thick white fibrous membrane that covers the surface of the long bones?
Long bone: the ends are called the epiphysis, the shaft is called the diaphysis. There is articular cartilage on either ends. The long bones distally and proximally red marrow. There is yellow marrow in the diaphysis. The yellow marrow is mostly fat. On the surface of the bone is a periosteum which covers the endosteum. The center is called the medullary cavity.
Do long bones elongate by converting cartilage in the bone ends into bone tissue?
true
