Bone responds to pressures. A person can look at a skeleton and tell if that person is left or right handed. The skeleton began even but the pressure or influences by using it makes it thicker. It lays down more bone using osteoblasts (bone+Builders). When a bone is broken, the osteoblasts form a bridge which is very thick. When it is mended, the osteoclast (bone+breaker) break down the extra bone to form the original (or close to the original) shape. This double process is also called bone remodeling.
