Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The diaphysis is the main or midsection (shaft) of a long bone. It is made up of cortical bone and usually contains bone marrow and adipose tissue (fat).
Detailed explanation-2: -Most of the diaphysis is formed by compact cortical bone, whereas the inside of the metaphysis and the epiphysis, as well as of short tubular and flat bones contains trabecular (cancellous) bone tissue.
Detailed explanation-3: -Compact bone consists of closely packed osteons or haversian systems. The osteon consists of a central canal called the osteonic (haversian) canal, which is surrounded by concentric rings (lamellae) of matrix. Between the rings of matrix, the bone cells (osteocytes) are located in spaces called lacunae.
