2. Matrix
In the matrix of bone, two types of canals are present.
A} Haversian canal
 Longitudinal canals which are arranged parallel to the
long axis of bone.
 In these canals one or two blood capillaries and nerve
fibres are present.

B} Volkmann’s canal
 These are transverse/horizontal or oblique canals.
 Haversian canals are interconnected by Volkmann’s canal.
 Matrix of bone is deposited in the form of layer. These layer of
matrix are called Lamellae.
 On the basis of arrangement three types of lamellae are present
in the matrix.
1. Haversian lamellae
Concentric layer of matrix which are present around haversian canal.
2. Interstitial lamellae
These layers of matrix are present in the space between two
Haversian system.
3. Circumferential lamellae
Peripheral layer of matrix just below the periosteum and around
the bone marrow cavity.
 Between these lamellae layer of osteocyte cells are also present.
 Osteocyte are present in the lacunae. Each osteocyte is inter
connected with adjacent osteocyte by their cytoplasmic process.
 Cytoplasmic process of osteocyte are present in the minute
canals of lacunae called as canaliculi.
 In each lacunae only one osteocyte cell is present.

Canaliculi Osteocyte Matrix

3. Endosteum
 Endosteum consist of two layers.
 Towards bone marrow cavity layer lined with reticular
fibrous connective tissue.
 Towards matrix of bone endostium lined with layer of
osteoblast cell. They divide to form osteocyte & synthesize
matrix.

4. Bone marrow cavity

 In the central region hollow cavity is present which is
filled with yellow bone marrow.

of cartilage ossification in the the ossification the visceral
connective tissue of of the tendons organs then
In the formation of dermis at the joints visceral bones
these 2 types of are formed.
Eg: In humans
cells are required Eg:
Patella (knee these bones
1 chondroclast cell Pubis , sternum,
cap) largest are absent
2 osteoblast nasal bone, clavivle,
Sesamoid bone
scapula, jaw bone &
Eg: Maximum bones flat bones of skull Pisiform
of our body like (Wrist bone)
limb bones.
