Explanation:

The medullary cavity (medulla, innermost part) is the central cavity of bone shafts where red bone
marrow and/or yellow bone marrow (adipose tissue) is stored; hence, the medullary cavity is also
known as the marrow cavity. Located in the main shaft (cortical bone) of a long bone (diaphysis)
(consisting mostly of compact bone), the medullary cavity has walls composed of spongy bone
(cancellous bone) and is lined with a thin, vascular membrane (endosteum). However, the medullary
cavity is the area inside any bone (long, flat, etc.) that holds the bone marrow.
