Canals in the bone in which blood vessels pass. Blood vessels from outside the bone penetrate the compact bone to the spongy bone through the PERFORATING CANALS.

How are perforating canals and central canals related?
Central canals extend longitudinally through bone tissue and transerse perforating canals connect them. -Brandy James :)
What is the Horizontal canal in an osteon?
The perforating (Volkmann) canals, that run horizontally in compact bone and connect to the central canal.
What route is taken by nutrients through a bone starting with periosteum and ending with an osteocyte in a lacuna?
The circulatory system brings blood containing nutrients and oxygen to the periosteum, which covers the bone. The periosteum is a thin membrane that contains nerves and blood vessels. Its main function is to provide nourishment to the bone. From the periosteum, nutrients and oxybgen go through the perforating canals to the central canal, and then to the canaliculi. The osteocyte nearest the central canal passes nutrients to the next osteocyte with arm-like extensions that extend into the canaliculi to the next osteocyte. At the terminal end of each extension, gap junctions connect the cytoplasm of each osteocyte so that nutrients/wastes can be passed between cells to/from the central canal.
Compact bone has perforating and central canals why isn't a canal system necessary in spongy bones?
For a bone (or anything else) to be spongy, it has to have vast numbers of tiny gaps, holes, or what are in effect tiny canals. One large canal can be replaced by lots of smaller ones.
What is perforating fibers?
bundles of collagenous fibers that pass into the outer circumferential lamellae of bone or the cementum of teeth.

Blood is distributed from the surface of a bone to deeper central canals through channels known as?
Other passageways, known as perforating canals or Volkmann's canals, extend perpendicular to the surface. Blood vessels in these canals supple blood to osteons deeper in the bone and to tissues of the medullary cavity.
Which structures allow communication between blood vessels and nerves in the periosteum and endosteum?
Perforating (Volkmann's ) canals.
What is the Horizontal canal in an osteon?
The perforating (Volkmann) canals, that run horizontally in compact bone and connect to the central canal.
What canal is the horizontal canal in the osteon?
The perforating (Volkmann) canals, that run horizontally in compact bone and connect to the central canal.

How does a perforating gastric ulcer damage the pancreas?
I believe the perforating gastric ulcer releases the acid, inside the stomach, which can then damages the pancreas, due to how close the pancreas and stomach are.
Which structures are found inside the central canal?
If Audiology, continue.Associated with the inner ear, are the circulatory canals upon which we depend for balance.There are three of them, (yaw, pitch, roll) and each contains a tiny bone-like material, an otolith which rests on a bed of nerves, and which signals the state of balance. The otolith is composed of calcium and gel.The canals are fluid filled, and it is residual rotation, or recovery from pressure, that give us our dizziness.
