Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Circumferential lamellae form the outer surface of compact bone, encircling the entire bone. Interstitial lamellae are remnants of old osteons, while concentric lamellae make up the layers of bone tissue around the central canal in an osteon. Appositional growth refers to the process of bone growth in width, and oppositional growth is not a term used in bone anatomy.
