The correct answer is B. Reticular connective tissue.

The endosteum is a thin, vascular membrane that lines the inner surface of the bony tissue that forms the medullary cavity of long bones. It consists of a single layer of bone-forming cells and a small amount of reticular connective tissue, which provides a supportive framework for the bone marrow and aids in bone growth, repair, and remodeling.
