What are remodeled osteons?
When old osteons are removed, concentric rings of lamellae are fragmented which then results in interstitial lamellaebetween the intact osteons.
What is the structure of bone tissue?
In a bone, the osteocytes and layers of extracellular matrix, which are concentrically clustered around a central canal, form a cylinder-shaped unit called an osteon, or Haversian system. Many osteons cemented together form the substances of bone.Hope that helped!
