Top-right element of「left hand dropping or plopping something」or「hand in flesh slit for meat」as the key to the ESSENCE OF LIFE, the PITH, QUINTESSENTIAL, used to denote internal fluids that lubricate bodily movements.
　Similar glyph used「terraced slope, buttocks」as the left element, and the whole thing may have meant「flesh that cascades or landslides or plops and drops down in rolls」of FAT, or「flesh that follows after.」Taken loosely, the next version using「bone」also meant「the workings with the body that assist movement are with the fat in bones.」This glyph is also used to denote internal fluids such as within the skull that surround the brain, and within the spinal column, both functioning to assist and lubricate bodily movement with natural body grease. MARROW is mostly fatty tissue inside bones, and is where red blood cells are produced. Red blood cells are the ESSENCE or CORE OF LIFE (one of them, at least), since without them the 'breath of life' is not possible, being the vehicles for respiration and moving oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from all the body's cells.
　「Flesh that follows after」is another key to the ESSENCE OF LIFE, since animals scavenging in times of severe famine, when normal sources of prey are scarce,「follow after」the bigger predators and crack open the remaining bones in order to eat the marrow contained therein, rich in nutrients and fat, staving off their own starvation for another short while.
　In any case, glyph depicts THE SOFT STUFF IN THE CENTER, a SOFT CORE encased within a tube, shaft, or some other structure.

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: marrow; essence; quintessence; pith (soft interior of plant stem)
Unihan extended: bone marrow; essences, substances
EDRDG: marrow; pith

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
