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.
Describe the process of new bone formation in an adult bone use the terms osteoid seam and calcification front?
The adult process of new bone formation by calcification front is where the new bone formation meets the osteoid seam. . Calcification front is the dividing line where the osteoid seam meets older mineralized bone.
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.
What cells are responsible for production of new bone?
An Osteoblast
The ability of bone to adapt to new stresses results from the turnover and recycling of?
matrix
What is the meaning of osteoclyte?
An osteocyte is a bone cell. It can live as long as the bone exists in the body, and it works to break down old bony matrix so that new matrix can take it's place.
Bone remodeling is critical in maintaining?
Osteoclasts which break down existing bone matrix and osteoblasts which lay down new bone matrix in areas that are under the greatest stress such as gravity or where muscles pull on bones.
What is the process of new bone formation in adults?
osteogenesis
When chondrocytes in lacunae divide and form new matrix it leads to an expansion of the cartilage tissue from within. This process is called?
When chondrocytes in lacunae divide and form new matrix, it leads to an expansion of the cartilage tissue from within. What is this process called?
What cell removes bone matrix?
Osteoclasts are cells that degrade bone. Osteoblasts are the cells that build bonesSome bone cells deposit bone and some reabsorb bone tissue.
Where are the osteoclasts found?
Osteoblasts are most common in the same places you would find an abundance of osteoblasts. This is most often at sites of new bone growth.
What is the process of osteogenesis?
Osteogenesis is the process of bone growth. It occurs in children at the epiphyseal plate, which is located at the end of bones. If the growth plates are injured during childhood, kids may end up with shortened or deformed limbs.
