Solution
The correct option is D Haversian canal
Haversian canals are a series of microscopic tubes in the outermost region of bone called cortical bone that allows blood vessels and nerves to travel through them.
Spongy bone is a network of irregularly-shaped sheets and spikes of bone (trabeculae). The trabeculae are only a few cell layers thick. The spaces between the trabeculae contain red or yellow marrow, depending on a person's age and on which bone it is. It consists of osteoblast, bone marrow, lacunae and canaliculae.
