Osteoclasts break down extra bone over time. If the bone is not functional, or if minerals are needed in the bloodstream, osteoclasts complete that breakdown.
No, the bony callus is primarily composed of spongy (cancellous) bone. It forms during the healing process of a bone fracture and helps stabilize and repair the bone. The bony callus eventually remodels into compact bone over time.
Hip bone spurs may regrow after surgical removal in some cases, but this is relatively uncommon. However, the presence of underlying conditions that contribute to bone spur formation, such as arthritis, can lead to new bone spur formation over time. It's important to address the underlying cause to help prevent future bone spur growth.
The bone marrow exam typically takes about 10 minutes. Extra time is needed for preparation and post-procedure care, especially if you receive intravenous (IV) sedation. The total time for the procedure is about 30 minutes. ~Mayo Clinic
Natural selection is a process that causes an organism's poorly suited characteristics to disappear over time. Organisms with traits better suited to their environment are more likely to survive, reproduce, and pass on their advantageous traits to their offspring, while those with less favorable characteristics are less likely to survive and reproduce.
The milk will not have any immediate effect on the chicken bone. However, over a long period of time, the calcium in the bone may start to react with the milk, leading to softening or erosion of the bone due to the acidic components in the milk.
An extra bone, often referred to as an accessory bone, can disappear over time through a process called resorption. This occurs when the body reabsorbs the bone tissue, typically due to mechanical stress, changes in load distribution, or lack of use. Over time, factors such as aging, hormonal changes, or injury can influence this process, leading to the gradual disappearance of the accessory bone. This phenomenon is part of the body's natural ability to adapt and remodel itself in response to various physiological demands.
The thick band of bone that forms around a broken bone, known as a callus, is initially created to stabilize the fracture and support healing. Over time, as the bone fully heals, the body undergoes a remodeling process where excess bone is resorbed by specialized cells called osteoclasts. This process helps restore the bone's original shape and strength, allowing the thickened area to gradually diminish as the bone returns to its normal contour.
A bone spur is a growth of additional bone on top of normal bone. They usually form when the bone repair process is activated over a long time due to pressure, rubbing, or physical stress on the bone over a period of time.

By evaporation water from a container disappear.
Yes, erasable ink can fade over time, especially if exposed to light or heat. It may not completely disappear, but the writing may become less visible or legible.
They don't. Over time they will decompose, or may be subject to insect and/or animal predation, but trust me, they should not just 'disappear'.
''it is because whales evolved over time during a point around 48 million years ago they were land animals so they needed their pelvic bone but as the whale evolved it kept that trait just as humans evolved and kept some unnecessary traits like wisdom teeth or an extra kidney''
In time the oxbow lake will get covered with weeds, fill with soil and will disappear.
Ice can disappear over a period time in a freezer due to evaporation. Most freezers have a very dry environment with low humidity.
vinegar breaks down the calcium in a chicken bone making it softer
A bruised tail bone will heal over time. There is no strategy for speeding healing of a bruise.
