The structure involved in the distribution of nutrients through compact bone tissue is **canaliculi**.
Canaliculi are tiny channels that connect the lacunae (small spaces where bone cells reside) to each other and to the haversian (central) canals, allowing for the transport of nutrients, waste products, and communication between osteocytes.
