Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Compact bone is organized into structures called osteons, which are also known as Haversian systems. Osteons are cylindrical-shaped structures made up of concentric layers of mineralized bone matrix called lamellae. The osteocytes (bone cells) are located within spaces called lacunae, and are connected to each other through tiny channels called canaliculi.
