I'm doing a biology project on Lamellar bone and I'm having problems with what bone actual does. I'm probably just using the wrong search engines though.

Well, lamellar bone is the adult bone, which you already know, so it functions in shape and support for the body, as well as protection for some organs. It also serves as a storage site for minerals, calcium and such. It does not however function in RBC development or storage because that is trabecular bone (spongy bone).

I don't think lamellar bone has any specialized function, other than to support the periosteum and endosteum and form the Haversian canals.

Isn't it a source of calcium for the body?
