Which of the following is a protein secreted by osteoblasts during bone deposition A calcium B vitamin C C phosphorus D collagen E none of the above?
A protein secreted by osteoblasts during bone deposition is collagen. The collagen is put down in layers parallel to the long axis of the bone alternating with layers at right angles to the long axis of the bone, kind of in a cross-hatching pattern.
What cellular activity causes increase in bone mass?
osteoblasts secrete matrix; bone deposition
The term osteoid refers to the organic part of the matrix of compact bones?
Yes. Osteoid is the organic bone matrix secreted by osteoblasts.
What kind of cell builds bone?
Osteoclasts (Osteo - bone, clast - make or create)
What are osteoblasts and where are they found?
Osteoblasts are needed to create bone. Osteoclasts destroy bone.
What types of cells build bone?
The cells that build bone are called OSTEOBLASTS.
The cell responsible for secreting the matrix of bone is the?
The cell type that is responsible for bone matrix is the Osteoblast. Osteoblast's form a protein mixture known as osteoid, which materializes to become bone. They also manufacture hormones to act on the bone itself.
Cells that produce bone tissue are called?
Cells that form bones are called osteoblasts.
What cells synthesize the organic components of the bone matrix?
Osteoblasts
Bone building cells?
Bone building cells are called osteoblasts. These osteoblasts are responsible for both building and repairing the bone tissues in the body.
What cells are responsible for production of new bone?
An Osteoblast
Osteoblasts and osteoclasts are found?
bone
