Bone is what kind of tissue?
Bone cells are called osteocytes, and the matrix of the bone is made of calcium salts and collagen. Bone tissue is the major structural and supportive connective tissue of the body.
What are bones cells that liquefy bone matrix and release calcium to the blood called?
Bone cells that liquefy the bone matrix and release calcium into the blood are called Osteoclasts. Immature or matrix depositing bone cells are called osteoblasts.
What are the cells that produce organic matrix in bone?
The cells that produce the collagen and inorganic salts of bone matrix are osteocytes. Osteocytes maintain the protein and mineral content of the bone matrix. Osteogenesis is the production of new bone matrix.
What are immature or matrix-depositing bone cells?
Osteoblasts are immature bone-forming cells.
What cells dissolve bone matrix?
osteclast
What are bone cells found in the lacunae within the matrix called?
Mature bone cells within the matrix are called osteocytes.
What are matrix-depositing bone cells referred to as?
Osteoblasts
Bone cells that liquefy bone matrix and release calcium to the blood?
Osteoclasts
What are osteoblasts and osteocytes?
an osteocyte is a bone cellan osteoblast is specific to the building/production of new boneOsteocytes are mature bone cells that maintains the bone matrix. Osteoblasts are immature bone cells that secrete organic components of matrix.
Bone cells that liquefy bone matrix and release calcium to the blood are called?
Osteoclasts
In bone formation the cells that produce the organic matrix are the?
Osteoblasts
Cells that produce bone tissue are called?
Cells that form bones are called osteoblasts.
