What is the difference between adipocyte and a osteocyte?
Adipocytes are cells that store fat, while osteocytes are bone cells responsible for maintaining bone tissue. Adipocytes store excess energy in the form of fat droplets, while osteocytes help maintain bone health by regulating mineral content and responding to mechanical stress. Both cell types play important roles in the body's overall functionality and health.
What is calcium nickname?
The bone mineral. The most abundant mineral in the body
What is calcium phosphate?
Calcium phosphate is the main mineral from which bone is comprised.
How will the acidity of the vinegar affect the flexibility of a chicken bone?
The vinegar (weak acetic acid) will de-calcify (remove the calcium) from the bone - thus rendering it flexible...easy to perform yourself. Best to clean the bone well before trying, change vinegar solution each day.
Do you keep your clothes on for a bone mineral density test?
Yes, you can keep your clothes on for a bone mineral density test. There is no need to change into a gown for this test. The equipment used for the test can typically accommodate clothing without affecting the results.
Bone cells called blank maintain the mineral content of a bone?
Osteocyte
Why is the bone in our bodt hard?

What Bone cells maintain the mineral content of bone?
Osteoblasts are bone cells responsible for building and maintaining the mineral content of bone. They help produce new bone tissue and regulate the deposition of minerals like calcium and phosphate.
What causes a bone to be hard or soft a bone to be hard or soft?
The density and strength of bone tissue is determined by the amount of mineral content, mainly calcium and phosphorus, present in the bone matrix. Bones that have higher mineral content are harder and stronger, while bones with lower mineral content are softer and more flexible. Other factors such as collagen fibers and bone architecture also contribute to the overall hardness or softness of a bone.
What is bmc stands for in body analysis?
I think you mean "BMI", which stands for Body Mass Index.
What are mature bone cells called?
Mature bone cells are called osteocytes. These cells are responsible for maintaining bone tissue and regulating mineral content.

Soaking bones in acid removes all skin, muscle and tissues from the bone, leaving it clean, bare bone.
Why a bone is not a mineral?

What is a density test?
Scroll down to related links and look at "Bone density - Wikipedia".It's a test for quantitative measurement of the mineral content of bone, used as an indicator of the structural strength of the bone and as a screen for osteoporosis.
