The tibia, or shinbone, is primarily composed of bone tissue, specifically a type called cortical bone, which provides strength and support. It also contains spongy bone tissue at its ends, which helps with weight distribution and shock absorption. Additionally, the tibia is surrounded by periosteum, a dense layer of connective tissue that plays a role in bone growth and repair.
What else can I help you with?
What is the pereosteum?
Pereosteum is the tissue that joins the tibia and fibula.
When standing in an anatomical position the tibia is medial to what bone?
The tibia is medial to the fibula. The tibia is the larger of the lower leg bones, and the tibia is the smaller.
What makes up your lower leg?
Tibia and fibula
What is Distal tibia bone infarct due to trauma?
An infarct is an area of tissue death due to loss of blood supply. A distal tibia bone infarct due to trauma, then, means tissue death at the part of the larger lower leg bone closest to the ankle. The cause of the tissue death was trauma.
How many bones in the tibia?
The tibia is its own bone. The tibia(s) (one in each lower leg) takes the weight of your body. Running directly beside the tibia on the outside or lateral side of the tibia is the fibula which is a different bone(s) which makes up the lower legs
What kind of tissue is your shinbone mostly made of?
The shinbone, or tibia, is primarily composed of dense, hard tissue known as cortical bone. This type of bone tissue provides strength and support, allowing the tibia to withstand weight and stress. Additionally, the interior of the tibia contains trabecular bone, which is spongy and helps in the production of blood cells and storage of minerals. Overall, the combination of these tissues contributes to the structural integrity and functionality of the shinbone.
How are the legs bones?
the legs have bones in them: the femur, tibia, and fibula. these are bones. the legs are not all bones, though. they have tissue and muscle and fat as well.
What is the tissue that makes xylem and phloem?
The vascular cambium tissue makes xylem and phloem.
What type of cell makes bone tissue?
Osteoblast makes new bone tissue
What tissue makes up bronchi?
the 18th tissue and the 65909867th tissue
The tibia is what to the fibula?
The fibula is lateral to the tibia.
What is the tibia in the thyroid gland?
There is not a tibia in the thyroid gland . . . your tibia is your shin bone.
