Compact bones are composed of closely packed bone tissue which contains few spaces between osteons, whereas spongy bones are less dense/lighter and they do not contain osteons

  • The osteon is the basic structural unit of compact bone.

  • An osteon is composed of a central canal known as the Haversian canal, surrounded by concentric bone layers called lamellae.

  • The spongy bone category includes:
  1. Proximal end of long bone (option a)
  2. Trabeculae (option b)
  3. Distal end of long bone (option c)
  4. Endosteum (option d)
  5. Red Bone Marrow (option e)

  • The compact bone category includes:
  1. Perforating Fibers (option f)
  2. Periosteum (option g)
  3. Diaphysis (option h)
  4. Osteon (option i)
  5. Lamellae (option j)

In conclusion, compact bones are composed of closely packed bone tissue that contains few spaces between osteons, whereas spongy bones are less dense/lighter and they do not contain osteons.
