What connects lacunae?
Canaliculi
What are the narrow passageways that contain cytoplasmic extensions of osteocytes?
Canaliculi is the narrow passageways that contain cytoplasmic extensions of osteocytes. Narrow passageways form through the matrix to allow for an exchange of nutrients in the bone.
What is the canal that connects lacunae to osteocytes?
The Haversian Canal is connected to the lacunae by a system of interconnecting canals called the canaliculi.
Tiny canals connecting lacunae?
The tiny canals that connect the lacunae are the canaliculi, the larger canals are the Haversian canals.
What is the purpose of canaliculi?
Canaliculi are small, microscopic canals between the various lacunae of ossified bone. The radiating processes of the osteocytes project into these canals
