The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Volkmann's Canal**: Begin by defining what Volkmann's canals are. They are small channels in the bone that allow for the passage of blood vessels. 2. **Location of Volkmann's Canal**: Identify where Volkmann's canals are found. They are located in the bone and are important for the vascularization of bone tissue. 3. **Function of Volkmann's Canal**: Explain the function of these canals. They transmit blood vessels from the periosteum (the outer layer of bone) into the interior of the bone. 4. **Relationship with Haversian Canals**: Discuss how Volkmann's canals relate to Haversian canals. They lie perpendicular to Haversian canals and communicate with them, facilitating the transport of nutrients and waste. 5. **Identifying the Correct Option**: Given the options (bones of birds, bones of amphibians, bones of mammals, and cartilage of mammals), determine which option is correct based on the information provided. 6. **Conclusion**: Conclude that Volkmann's canals are specifically found in the bones of mammals, as they are not present in the bones of birds, amphibians, or in the cartilage of mammals. **Final Answer**: Volkmann's canals are found in the bones of mammals. ---
