The inner membrane is the osteogenic layer, consisting primarily of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. The outer membrane is the fibrous layer , which is made of dense irregular connective tissue. Endosteum – inner bone covering made of connective tissue membrane containing both osteoblasts and osteoclasts. 7. What is the difference between yellow and red bone marrow?
