Bone Types. Bones can be separated into five different bone types, which are explained below: 1  Long bones-these are the bones connected with large movement. 2  They are long and cylindrincal with growth heads-epiphyses (singular epiphysis-pronounced epi-physis) at either end.3  The epiphysis is covered by articular cartilage. The inside of the bone is spongy, called cancellous bone. 2  Examples of long bones include the femur (thigh bone), the humerus (upper bone in the arm) and the phalanges (fingers and toes). 3  Short bones-these bones are almost cube shaped and associated with smaller, more complex movements.
