Light micrograph of a cross-sectioned diaphysis of an immature bone in the process of ossification surrounded by muscles. The cortex of immature bone tissue (plexiform or trabecular) appears as a layer of interlocking and connected trabeculae forming an irregular network. In the centre is the bone marrow.
