Spongy (cancellous) bone is lighter and less dense than compact bone. Spongy bone consists of plates (trabeculae) and bars of bone adjacent to small, irregular cavities that contain red bone marrow. The canaliculi connect to the adjacent cavities, instead of a central haversian canal, to receive their blood supply.
Cancellous or Spongey Bone. Cancellous or spongey bone is found forming the core of most flat and irregular bones. It is also very prevalent in the epiphyses(ends) of long bones. The construction of this osseous tissue type is quite different than that of compact bone. One key difference is the absence of osteons! Spongey bone as the name implies is more open and in cross-section offers a compartmentalized appearance not unlike that of a sponge.
