when bones is baked, the collagen are removed. Therefore, bones become dry and brittle, easy to break.
The inorganic portion of bone give hardness & durability but the organic portion of bone give flexibility
The organic material in bone, primarily collagen, provides flexibility and tensile strength, allowing bones to bend without breaking. It also helps in the repair and remodeling of bone tissue.

Everything in a bone is organic. The word organic refers to something coming from something that is naturally occurring. Since bones are naturally occurring in animals, they are completely organic.
Bone is mixture of organic and inorganic componants. You have collagen fibres as organic and calcium salts as inorganic elements.
Osteiod is the organic part of the bone. It consists of collagen fibers for framework, glyco proteins and proteoglycans.
Mature bone cells, called osteocytes, are found in the hard portions of every bone in the body.

The organic matrix elements of a bone are primarily collagen. This allows the bone to flex.
