Chapter 9 Bone- Types of bone tissue Bone tissue consists of two types, which differ in density. Bone- Types of bone tissue is formed when many Haversian systems are tightly packed together, producing a very strong, rigid structure that forms the outer covering of bones. Cancellous or spongy bone is less dense and forms the interior structure of bones. Spongy bone lacks Haversian systems but is made up of plates of bonebordering cavities that contain marrow. A typical long bone consists of ...
