It is made up of cortical bone and usually contains cancellous bone and bone marrow.## Step 2The options provided are: epiphysis, marrow cavity, nutrient foramen, central canal, and canaliculus. ## Step 3The epiphysis is the end part of a long bone, initially growing separately from the shaft. ## Step 4The nutrient foramen is an opening in the bone that allows blood vessels to enter and leave the bone. ## Step 5The central canal, also known as Haversian canal, is the central channel in osteons that contains the bone's blood supplies. ## Step 6The canaliculus is a small channel that connects the lacunae in compact bone. ## Step 7The marrow cavity, also known as the medullary cavity, is the central cavity of bone where it contains the yellow marrow.
