Bone Diagram Epiphysis. The hollow region in the diaphysis is called the medullary cavity which is filled with yellow marrow. Does not connect to articular cartilage.
There also are bands of fibrous connective tissue the ligaments and the tendons in intimate relationship with the parts of the skeleton. In mice and humans most tubular bones develop an epiphysis at both ends. A long bone has two main regions.
The epiphyses and diaphysis grow towards one another and eventually fuse into one bone.
Singular is epiphysis are the proximal and distal ends of the bone. Distal epiphysis explain the advantage for melanin granules being located in the deep layer of the epidermis. The diaphysis is the hollow tubular shaft that runs between the proximal and distal ends of the bone. A long bone has two main regions.
