    The document describes the structure and cellular components of bone. It shows that bone is composed of concentric layers of lamellar bone organized into structural units called osteons or Haversian systems, with osteocytes embedded in lacunae throughout the bone matrix. Osteons are surrounded by interstitial lamellae and contain central Haversian canals containing blood vessels and nerves. Bone marrow resides within the medullary cavity and contains osteoprogenitor cells that can develop into osteoblasts or osteoclasts.
