They are part of the microscopic structure of compact bone. Compact bone is solid, dense, and smooth.
The structural unit of compact bone is the Haversian system or Osteon. These are elongated cylinders cemented together to form the long axis of a bone.
Components of Haversian system consists of osteocytes (spider-shaped bone cells that lie in "lacunae") that have laid down a matrix of collagen and calcium salts in concentric lamellae (layers) around a central Haversian canal containing blood vessels and nerves.
Each system has communicating canals within compact bone with other systems.
An osteon is a long cylindrical tube shaped unit in mature compact bone. It consists of concentric layers of bone lamellae surrounding a central canal also known as the Haversian system. They are oriented parallel to the long axis of the bone and to the main compression stresses. Structurally a group of concentric tubes resembling rings of a tree trunk. Each tube is a lamellae( little plate); a layer of bone matrix which collagen fibers and mineral crystals line up and run in opposite direction. This pattern alternates to withstand torsion, twisting and stresses and inhibits crack propagation.Through the core of the osteon runs the Haversian canal also known as central canal and like all bone cavities it is lined with endosteum. It has its own blood vessels that supply nutrients to the bone cells of the osteon and its own fibers.
perennial canals : They are linked to dams and barrages to provide water throughout the year and they irrigate a vast area.Inundation canals : long canals taken off from large rivers are called inundation canals. They receive water when the river is high enough and especially when it is in flood
Both of these are in the ear. The semi-circular canals help you to balance and the cochlea transmits nerve signals to the brain. This is how you hear. The inner ear is subdivided into the vestibule, semicircular canals, and cochlea. The semicircular canals and cochlea are separate structures with different functions. The receptors for balance are in the semicircular canals, and the organ of Corti (the organ of hearing) is in the cochlea.

The Haversian canals carry blood vessels and nerves to and from the bone.
Haversian canals
Haversian Canals
Haversian canals are central canals found in the center of osteons in compact bone, while Volkmann's canals are channels that run perpendicular to the haversian canals, connecting different osteons together. Haversian canals contain blood vessels and nerves, while Volkmann's canals facilitate communication between different osteons and provide additional pathways for blood vessels.
osteonic canals
Haversian canals branch into the compact bone, they caring blood vesels which nourish the osteocytes.
Haversian canals contain blood vessels and nerves that supply nutrients to the osteocytes (bone cells) within the compact bone tissue. They also facilitate communication between different parts of the bone and help with the removal of waste products.
The communicating tubes that connect adjacent Haversian canals are called Volkmann's canals. These canals allow for interconnectivity between neighboring Haversian systems in bone tissue, facilitating the exchange of nutrients and waste products throughout the bone.
The haversian canals are used to transport oxygen to the bone cells. It also contains the nerves for the bones.
Haversian canals are characteristic of compact bone tissue. They are interconnected channels within the bone that contain blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatic vessels, allowing for the exchange of nutrients and waste products within the bone.
The tiny tunnels in compact bones are called Haversian canals. These canals contain blood vessels and nerves that supply nutrients and oxygen to the bone cells.
The tiny canals that connect the lacunae are the canaliculi, the larger canals are the Haversian canals.
