answers: a - e
a diaphysis
b endosteum
c marrow

Explanation:

The endosteum is a thin connective tissue layer that lines the medullary cavity of long bones. The diaphysis is the shaft of a long bone. Marrow is the tissue inside the medullary cavity (not the covering). The epiphysis is the end part of a long bone. The epiphyseal plate is a hyaline cartilage plate in the metaphysis at each end of a long bone. So, the correct answer is B.

Answer:

B. Endosteum
