Children Red
Why do adults have less red bone marrow than children?
I just read this from my Biology book:
“In a child, most bones contain red bone marrow, but in an adult, it is present only in the bones of the skull, the sternum (breastbone), the ribs, the clavicle, the pelvic bones, and the vertebral column.”
It states that, but it doesn’t explain WHY which is what I’m curious about.
I actually asked this already but I didn’t get any useful responses, so I’m asking it again.
Red bone marrow makes red blood cells
Red blood cells carry oxygen
Babies have higher metabolism than adults because they are continuosly growing their body. So they need more oxygen. So they need more red blood cells. So they need more red bone marrow
