What is another word for yellow marrow?
Pronunciation: [jˈɛlə͡ʊ mˈaɹə͡ʊ] (IPA) 
Yellow marrow is a term used to refer to the fatty, soft tissue found in the central cavity of long bones in the human body. This type of marrow is different from the red marrow found in spongy bone tissue. Although there are no direct synonyms for the term, the yellow marrow can also be called the medullary cavity or medullary canal. These terms are often used interchangeably with yellow marrow. The medullary cavity is responsible for producing and storing yellow bone marrow in the body. As the body ages, yellow bone marrow replaces the red bone marrow. Hence, medullary cavity and yellow bone marrow can be used synonymously.
