This lines the medullary cavity
A
Periosteum
B
Endosteum
C
Diaphysis
D
Osteoblasts
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The endosteum is lined by a single thin layer of bone-lining cells (mature osteoblasts) and osteoblasts which form a membrane over endocortical and trabecular bone surfaces to enclose the bone marrow [34].

Detailed explanation-2: -The medullary cavity has a delicate membranous lining called the endosteum (end-= “inside”; oste-= “bone”), where bone growth, repair, and remodeling occur. The outer surface of the bone is covered with a fibrous membrane called the periosteum (peri– = “around” or “surrounding”).

Detailed explanation-3: -Haversian Canal-runs up the center of the osteon, contains blood vessels, nerves. Perforating Canal-also called Volkmann’s canals, perpendicular to Haversian canals, supply Haversian canals. Both canal types are lined with endosteum.

Detailed explanation-4: -The endosteum is a membrane that lines the center of your bones that contain bone marrow. The perichondrium is very similar to the periosteum. It covers the cartilage on the ends of your bones.
