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.
What is formed through a process called ossification?
Bone is formed through a process called ossification. Osteoclasts are cells that release an acid which dissolves the collagen and mineral coating. Osteoblasts are cells that lay down new collagen. in ossification the osteoclasts and osteoblasts are involved in breaking down bone.. then forming bone which happens continuously in life
What are bone forming cells?
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 or bone+holes) occurs.
Is bone constantly renewed through a process of remodeling that consists of resorption and formation?
a two-stage process (resorption and formation) that occurs throughout life. In the resorption stage, old bone is broken down and removed by cells called osteoclasts. In the formation stage, cells called osteoblasts build new bone to replace the old
What type of bone cell breakes down bone and what event causes them to form more bones?

What make bones heal fast compared to nerve or muscle?
Bone is constantly remodeled during much of life by osteoblasts and osteoclasts. As such, the repair to a broken bone heals faster because it models the bone back in place, and sometimes it will heal stronger than it was before the injury.
What are types of tissue that make up the skeletal system?
the cells that make up bone are osteocytes_____Yes, osteocytes are the cells found within bone. Osteocytes are in fact osteoblasts that have been trapped in the bone matrix that they produce. In answer to the question at hand, "what cells make bones", the answer is osteoblasts.osteoblasts
