Which bone tissue adapted to support weight and withstand tension stress?
The type of bone tissue that gives a bone its strength is called cortical or compact bone tissue. This type of bone tissue is dense and forms the outer layer of most bones in the body, providing strength, support, and protection. Cortical bone tissue contains mineralized collagen fibers that are arranged in a parallel fashion, giving the bone its characteristic strength and resistance to bending or breaking.
What part of the bone is hard and dense?
compact bone. yah buddy!
The structure of bone tissue suits the function Which of the following bone tissues is adapted to support weight and withstand tension stress?
Compact bone tissue is adapted to support weight and withstand tension stress due to its dense structure and arrangement of osteons. These osteons are aligned in the direction of stress to provide strength and stability to the bone. This compact arrangement makes it ideal for weight-bearing and resisting tension.
What type of bone makes up the shaft of a long bone?
bone marrow is in the center of the bone shaft
Why do people have spongy bone and compact bone?
Compact bone and spongy bone both perform different functions. Compact bone forms the outer tissue of bone. It forms the walls of the diaphysis of long bones and part of the epiphyses. It is vascularized tissue that accepts nourishment from the blood vessels. Spongy bone is located in the spaces that fill with bone marrow (central marrow cavity) in long bones (interior of the epiphyses) and adds strength to bone with minimal weight.
Most of the weight of a bone comes from what?
Compact tissue
How does the structure of compact bone follow its function?
The compact bone is also known as the strong bone due to its makeup. Compact bone is very dense with a high mass, making it better suited to carry weight and stay safe from damage.
Why do bones need a compact bone?
so they can cover the spongy bone and to lift the weight of the body

What are the structural differences between compact bone and spongy bone?
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.
Does spongy bone or compact bone provide most of the strength to the bone?
Compact bone.

Is compact bone located in the diaphysis or the epiphyses?
Compact bone is dense and solid in appearance and cancellous bone is characterized by open space partially filled with needle-like structures. Compact bone is found in the main shaft of long bones called the diaphysis. Its' function is to provide strong support without cumbersome weight.
What type of bone makes up the shaft of a long bone?
bone marrow is in the center of the bone shaft
Is the compact bone spongy?
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.
