How do osteocytes get nutrients?
From the nutrient arteries, to the cells. And it then pass from cell to cell through the canaliculi of their lacunae.
What route is taken by nutrients through a bone starting with periosteum and ending with an osteocyte in a lacuna?
The circulatory system brings blood containing nutrients and oxygen to the periosteum, which covers the bone. The periosteum is a thin membrane that contains nerves and blood vessels. Its main function is to provide nourishment to the bone. From the periosteum, nutrients and oxybgen go through the perforating canals to the central canal, and then to the canaliculi. The osteocyte nearest the central canal passes nutrients to the next osteocyte with arm-like extensions that extend into the canaliculi to the next osteocyte. At the terminal end of each extension, gap junctions connect the cytoplasm of each osteocyte so that nutrients/wastes can be passed between cells to/from the central canal.
Are an osteon contains osteocytes lamellae and a central canal and is found in compact bone only?
true
What tissue are cells in solid matrix arranged around central canal?
Bone cells surround Haversian canals. Osteon (Haversian system) is the structural unity of bone. Spaces for osteocytes are called lacunae. The matrix is present in concentric rings called lamellae. Canaliculi are canals that join lacunae with the central Haversian canal (central canal)
Stores water and may contain substances such as ions nutrients and wastes?
In plant cells, it's known as the vacuole, or central vacuole. :)
Which structures allow nutrients to reach the osteocytes from the blood vessels in the central canal?
osteoblast

Three componets of bone tissue of an osteon?
The osteon, or Haversian system, is the fundamental functional unit of much compact bone. Each consists of concentric layers of Osteocytes, called Lamellae, surrounding a central Haversian Canal containing nerve and blood supplies.Osteoblasts are "parent cells" which form the lamellae sequentially, from the "outside" in toward the Haversian canal. Some of them develop into osteocytes, each contained in a space called a lacuna.Osteocytes contact the cytoplasmic processes of other osteocytes by a network of small canals known as canaliculi which is known to transport nutrients to, and waste away from the osteon.
