Explanation

The atrioventricular septum separates the atria and ventricles of the human heart and is composed of fibrous and adipose tissues. It is formed by an extension or crest of the interventricular septum on the left and anterior membranous and inferior muscular parts that emerge from the right atrial septal wall. While cartilage and mucous membrane are found in other parts of the body, osteocytes are cells found in bone tissue and are not present in the atrioventricular septum.
