The adult human skeleton contains ____________ bones. The skeleton of a human infant is
made up of more than 300 parts, most of which are comprised of cartilage. Over time, most of
this cartilage turns into bone in a process called ossification. As human children grow and
develop, smaller components of bones fuse together.

Bones are comprised of two types of osseous tissue:

_________________________ bone - outer surface of bone, dense and solid
_________________________ bone - inner porous network of bony fibers

Fill in the blanks to label the following:

 compact bone
 spongy bone
 bone marrow
