The minerals found in bones are deposited by living cells called?
The bone cells that break down bone are called osteoclasts (bone+breaker). There are others called osteoblasts (bone+builder) which build bone. Usually there are about equal numbers of them in your body.They are always breaking and rebuilding in a process called bone remodeling. This is a life long process and your body will replace bones at a 10% rate per year.As you grow older, the osteoclasts out number the osteoblasts and the process of osteopenia (less dense bone) and osteoporosis ( weak bone) occurs.

Why is it that sometimes when bones are x rayed they appear as white images?
Bones always appear as white images in regular xrays. However they arent really white because the film is clear, the plastic on the view box is white. But on xray film it is coated with a metalic layer. The xrays make the metalic layer stick to the film. So the black part of the film is where all the xrays reach the film. If the area on the xray is gray, then that means that some of the xrays are getting through implying that the structure is more dense than the black part. Soft tissue appears gray. The bone is a very dense structure allowing minimal to no xrays getting through. The film is then put through the processor and the film runs through chemicals that make the picture "stay" on the film. It is then rinsed and dried. Since the xrays make the metalic layer stick, none stick to the area of the bone because no radiation got through and the layer was washed off during processing. This is why bones appear white, they are the densest structure.
