osteon
basic functional units of mature compact bone consisting of osteocytes arranged in concentric layers around a central canal
lacuna
central canal
in the center of an osteon, contains blood vessels that supply blood to and from the osteon
osteocyte
bone cells found within pockets called lacunae
lamellae
bone matrix forms layers
canaliculi
narrow passage ways that allow for exchange of nutrients, etc
concentric lamella
form around the osteon
interstitial lamella
forms BETWEEN osteons
circumferential osteon
forms around the entire bone
