Bone ash is the white, material produced by the calcination of bone s. It is primarily composed of calcium phosphate . It is commonly used in fertilizer s, polishing compounds and in making ceramic s such as bone china . It also has historical uses in the manufacture of baking powder s and assay cupel s. Although chemical synthesis synthetic alternatives, such as dicalcium phosphate and tricalcium phosphate , have been produced, the majority of bone china is still made using natural bone ash. Synthetic bone ash has also found use as a mold release agent for the casting of non ferrous metals such as copper .

Image Illu long bone.jpg 200px thumb right Parts of a long bone The long bones are those that are longer than they are wide. They are one of five types of bones Long bone long , Short bone short , Flat bone flat , Irregular bone irregular and Sesamoid bone sesamoid . Long bones, especially the femur and tibia , are subjected to most of the load during daily activities and they are crucial for skeletal mobility. They grow primarily by elongation of the diaphysis , with an epiphysis at each end of the growing bone . The ends of epiphyses are covered with hyaline cartilage articular cartilage . The longitudinal growth of long bones is a result of endochondral ossification at the epiphyseal plate . Bone growth in length is stimulated by the production of growth hormone GH , a secretion of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland . The long bones include the femur femora , tibia e, and fibula e of the legs the humerus humeri , Radius bone radii , and ulna e of the arms metacarpals and metatarsals of the hands and feet, the Phalanx bones phalanges of the fingers and toes, and the clavicle s or collar bones. The long bones of the human leg comprise nearly half of adult height. The other primary skeletal component of height are the vertebra e and human skull skull . The outside of the bone consists of a layer of connective tissue called the periosteum . Additionally, the outer shell of the long bone is compact bone , then a deeper layer of cancellous bone spongy bone which contains red bone marrow . The interior part of the long bone is the medullary cavity with the inner core of the bone cavity being composed of yellow marrow in adults, and red marrow in young children.
