The diaphysis of a bone contains its medulla, in which the bone marrow resides. Here is where you will find the factory responsible for producing blood cells. The marrow is the site of production of platelets, leukocytes, and erythrocytes, which eventually enter circulation and provide vital functionality to the body.
