Bone marrow is a soft, spongy tissue found within the cavities of bones. It has two main types:
Red Marrow: Responsible for hematopoiesis, the production of blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Yellow Marrow: Primarily composed of adipose tissue, it serves as a reserve for fats and can convert to red marrow under certain conditions, such as severe blood loss.
