both are more active because one builds and the other tears down
Any of these changes may result if osteoblasts are more active than osteoclasts.
Osteoblasts are needed to create bone. Osteoclasts destroy bone.
bone
Osteoclasts and osteoblasts
Osteoclasts (Osteo - bone, clast - make or create)
Ossification.
osteoblasts, or "bone builders" help to lay new deposits, while osteoclasts, or "bone clearers,' break them down. ( so osteoblasts and osteoclasts)
osteoblasts or osteoclasts
Yes.
Osteoclasts are cells that degrade bone. Osteoblasts are the cells that build bonesSome bone cells deposit bone and some reabsorb bone tissue.
They absorb (or resorb) bone. Bone is active living tissue that is constant remaking itself. The osteoclasts break down and resorb old bone while osteoblasts lay down new bone to take its place.
Osteoclasts degrade bone surfaces so that osteoblasts can produce new bone Also Osteoclasts realese calcium and phosphorus into the blood stream
