What accomplishes bone resorption?
A cell called an osteoclast accomplishes bone resorption.
What is the name of the cell responsible for bone resorption?
Bone resorbing cells are known as osteoclasts. Immature bone cells are referred to as osteoblasts. Mature bone cells are called osteocytes.
How many nucleus are in a bone cell?
Yes, mitochondria is one of the essential cell organelles found in Eukaryote. So all the tissue/system including bones are having mitochondria, in fact they function in bone resorption and formation.
Which cell accomplishes resorption?
Osteoclasts
Do brain cell undergo meiosis?
no they undergo mitosis
How does bone marrow regulate homeostasis?
Remodeling or bone turnover is the process of resorption followed by replacement of bone with little change in shape and occurs throughout a person's life. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts, coupled together via paracrine cell signalling, are referred to as bone remodeling units. The purpose of remodeling is to regulate calcium homeostasis, repair micro-damaged bones (from everyday stress) but also to shape and sculpture the skeleton during growth. == The process of bone resorption by the osteoclasts releases stored calcium into the systemic circulation and is an important process in regulating calcium balance. As bone formation actively fixes circulating calcium in its mineral form, removing it from the bloodstream, resorption actively unfixes it thereby increasing circulating calcium levels. These processes occur in tandem at site-specific locations. == Repeated stress, such as weight-bearing exercise or bone healing, results in the bone thickening at the points of maximum stress (Wolff's law). It has been hypothesized that this is a result of bone's piezoelectric properties, which cause bone to generate small electrical potentials under stress
Kind of a cell that does not have a nucleus?
Kind of cell that does not have a nucleus?
How do cell that do not undego cytokinesis differ in appearance from cell that do undergo cytokinesis?
Cells that do not undergo cytokinesis will have multiple nuclei, while cells that do undergo cytokinesis will have only one nucleus.
What changes do broken bones undergo as they heal?
There are cells called osteocytes and osteoblasts and osteoclasts always crawling around inside and around bones. They constantly dissolve away bits of bone and constantly lay down new bits of bone. When a bone breaks the physical stresses and chemical signals attract more of these cells to lay down more new bone. Where the two broken ends of a bone touch the new bone laid down "glues" them together. Over time all the bone around the break gets dissolved and rebuilt bit by bit, effectively erasing the crack.
Do xylem cells undergo cell division?
No, xylem cells are "dead" cells and therefore do not undergo cell division.
What are the locations in the body where cell populations undergo rapid mitosis?
Cells undergo rapid mitosis in the body in areas that feature a high turnover. Epithelial and endothelial cells constantly replicate to renew skin and vascular lining. Also, hematopoietic progenitor cells constantly replace blood cells in circulation.
Are hepatocytes labile or stable type cells?
Hepatocytes are stable-type cells. This means that they are not constantly dividing, but maintain the capacity to re-enter the cell cycle and undergo mitosis if necessary.
