#### Exercise 8 Review Sheet: Art-Labeling Activity 2
**Part A: Identification of Osteon Structures**
In this activity, you are required to drag and drop the labels onto the diagram to identify the different structures of an osteon.
##### Instructions:
1. **Drag the labels** from the left side and place them in the correct positions on the diagram on the right.
2. **Identify the following structures**:
- Canaliculi
- Central canal
- Lamella
- Lacuna
---
The diagram displayed here showcases the detailed microscopic structure of an osteon, which is the fundamental functional unit of compact bone. The osteon comprises several concentric layers (lamellae) surrounding a central canal, through which blood vessels and nerves pass.
---
**Diagram Explanation:**
1. **Canaliculi**: Small channels that radiate from the central canal to lacunae and from lacuna to lacuna, facilitating the exchange of nutrients and wastes.
2. **Central Canal (Haversian Canal)**: The central channel in the osteon contains blood vessels and nerves.
3. **Lamella**: Concentric rings made up of mineralized matrix providing structural strength.
4. **Lacuna**: Small spaces between the lamellae which house osteocytes, the bone cells.

After labeling the diagram correctly, **click "Submit"** to record your answers.

**Note**:
- Incorrect answers may be reset, giving you an opportunity to revise and resubmit.
- Use the "Help" button if you require assistance during the activity.
**Additional Resources**: To further understand the composition of bones, refer to the provided chapter materials and lecture notes.
