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 else can I help you with?

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.
What tissue produces erythrocytes?

What does bone marrow have in it?
There are two types of bone marrow: red marrow (consisting mainly of myeloid tissue) and yellow marrow (consisting mainly of fat cells). Red blood cells, platelets and most white blood cells arise in red marrow. Both types of bone marrow contain numerous blood vessels and capillaries.
