What else can I help you with?
Of the three major types of cells present in bone tissue which one is responsible for bone building?
Osteoblasts are the cells responsible for building bone tissue. They produce the matrix that eventually becomes mineralized bone.
Describe where dense irregular connective tissue is found on the surface of a long bone?
Dense irregular connective tissue can be found in the periosteum, which is the outermost layer of the bone. It helps to protect the bone and provide support by anchoring tendons and ligaments to the bone surface.
During endochondral bone formation the primary center of ossification forms in the?
it develops in the diaphysis in long bones
A long bone grows in thickness as bone tissue is deposited beneath its what?
Periosteum. The periosteum is a dense fibrous membrane that surrounds the outer surface of bones and is responsible for generating new bone tissue, contributing to the growth in thickness of long bones.
What connective tissue surrounds the diaphysis of long bone?
periosteum : tough fibrous connective tissue membrane that covers the outside of the diaphysis. this protects the bone and serves as a point of attachment.
What type of bone tissue is located in the shaft of a long bone?
marrow
Where is dense connective tissue found on the surface of the long bone?
cartilage is dense connective tissue and the cartilage of the long bone is articular hyaline cartilage, located on the outer surface of the articulating portion of the long bone.
What is the predominant type of tissue at the ends of long bones?
Cancellous bone tissue.

What is the fibrous outer connective tissue covering of a long bone?
The outer sheath of connective tissue of the long bone is known as periosteum. It surrounds the bone in all areas except those in which articulate cartilage is located.
What is the shaft of a long bone?
It is the part of the bone inb/w the two extrimities of the bone and is made of cancellous tissue
Which is greater osteoclast activity when calcitonin is present?
Osteoclast activity is decreased when calcitonin is present. Calcitonin inhibits bone resorption by osteoclasts, leading to decreased breakdown of bone tissue.
What is the structure of a long bone?
The long bone consists of the epiphysis and diaphysis. The epiphysis is the end part of the long bone and the diaphysis is the shaft of the long bone. In the shaft of the long bone, there is yellow bone marrow which stores fat in adults and produces white blood cells. In the end parts of the long bone is red bone marrow which makes red blood cells. On one end of the long bone, where there is the joint, it is covered with smooth cartilage. Surrounding the outer surface of the bone is a tough membrane called periosteum. Just beneath the membrane and above the bone tissue is compact bone tissue.
In contrast to compact bone tissue Type of bone tissue that contains a latticework of thin columns of bone?
spongy bone tissue
In contrast to compact bone tissue this type of bone tissue contains an irregular latticework of thin columns of bone?
spongy (bone tissue)
What are the functions of the two type of bone tissue?
Two types of bone tissue are compact bone and spongy bone. Compact bone functions as the basic supporting tissue of the body. Spongy bone's function , meanwhile, is to make up most of the short, flat, and irregular bones in your body. It also makes up the ends of long bones.
