What does Osteocytes secrete?
Osteocytes become surrounded by bone matrix and are relatively inactive, but do have the capability to produce components needed to maintain the bone matrix if needed. Lacunae osteoblasts change into osteocytes.
Do osteocytes become osteoblasts when they are completely surrounded by bony matrix?
As you know, osteoblasts secrete collagen and organic cmpounds upon which bone is formed. Osteoblasts are incapable of mitosis. As Osteoblasts release matrix materials around themselves, they become enveloped by the matrix and at this point differentiate into Osteocytes.
Cells that produce bone tissue are called?
Cells that form bones are called osteoblasts.
What are bones cells that liquefy bone matrix and release calcium to the blood called?
Bone cells that liquefy the bone matrix and release calcium into the blood are called Osteoclasts. Immature or matrix depositing bone cells are called osteoblasts.
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.
What are the narrow passageways that contain cytoplasmic extensions of osteocytes?
Canaliculi is the narrow passageways that contain cytoplasmic extensions of osteocytes. Narrow passageways form through the matrix to allow for an exchange of nutrients in the bone.
What are bone cells found in the lacunae within the matrix called?
Mature bone cells within the matrix are called osteocytes.
The matrix is secreted by?
osteocytes
What are the cells of the bone?
They're called OSTEOCYTES calcifying together in a matrix tissue of bone matter.

Which cells of bones secrete the matrix of Haversian canal?
osteocytes
What tissue has chondrocytes and osteocytes?
neural tissue
What Bone cells maintain the mineral content of bone?
These are osteocytes; they are responsible for maintaining the extracellular matrix that forms the bone.
