The actual term for bone forming cells is osteoblasts. Once they mature, they then are called osteocytes and maintain the bone matrix.

What are Cells that produce the matrix of new bone tissue are called?
Osteocytes are bone cells. Special ones that build bone are called osteoblasts (blast=build) and ones that break down bone are called osteoclasts (clasts=break).
What part of the bone is hematopoietic tissue located?
In the few flat bone you have red bone marrow. It contains the precursor cells of the haemopoietic tissue. They produce the red blood cells.
What are the spongy porous bone tissue called?
Spongy bone tissue is not as highly arranged as compact bone tissue because it doesn't do as much of the weight supporting function as compact bone. Its tissue is arranged in a sponge-like pattern of bony plates called trabeculae. The spaces between these trabeculae are filled with bone marrow which is where our blood cells are made. Spongy bone makes up most of the tissue of flat, short, and irregularly shaped bones.
What are cells that break down bone tissue called?
Osteoclasts
How is a bone similar to other living tissues?
Bone is not just similar to living tissue; it actually is living. It is classified as a connective tissue. The living cells in bone are called osteocytes. The osteocytes are surrounded by a hard matrix of calcium and phosphate called hydroxyapatite.
Does muscle tissue produce red blood cells?
No, muscle tissue doesn't produce any blood cells.

What are the cells of bone tissue called?
Osteocytes
What tissue in your bones produce white blood cells?
the bone marrow
What part of the bone is hematopoietic tissue located?
In the few flat bone you have red bone marrow. It contains the precursor cells of the haemopoietic tissue. They produce the red blood cells.
What Bone cells are responsible for the synthesis of new bone tissue called?
osteoblasts
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.

They're called OSTEOCYTES calcifying together in a matrix tissue of bone matter.
