Which of the following is the vascular arrangement inside the young red bone marrow?
Correct Answer: Nutrient Aery-central longitudinal aerioles-radial capillaries-sinuses- nutrient nutrient vein
Description: Nutrient aery-central longitudinal aerioles-radial capillaries- sinuses-nutrient vein, is the correct vascular arrangement inside the young red bone marrow. A nutrient aery enters the cavity through a large nutrient foramen in the shaft of the bone. Other aeries typically enter the cavity near the ends of the bone. These are designated as metaphysical aeries. At least one large nutrient vein leaves the marrow cavity through the nutrient foramen with the nutrient aery. Blood vessels also pass from the narrow cavity into the compact bone of the shaft. The vessels leaving the compact bone of the shaft exit as periosteal vessels. Ref: Kaushansky K. (2010). Chapter 16.
