Bone marrow: yellow marrow = mostly fat red marrow blood vessels and blood cells in various stages of development ribs, pelvic bone, sternum, vertebrae, epiphyses of long bones replaced later in life with yellow marrow. Cranial bones: coronal (crown, parietal (side, occipital (back) temporal (temple, sphenoid (wedge, ethmoid (sieve, mastoid process (nipple, styloid process (pillar) temporomandibular joint connects the temporal bone and the mandible.
