These cells are found in the periosteum and endosteum. They are cells capable of differentiating into osteoblasts or osteoclasts during times of mechanical stress or injury

What does the osteogenic layer of bone consist of?

The osteogenic layer of bone consists of osteoprogenitor cells, which are stem cells that can differentiate into osteoblasts, the cells responsible for bone formation. It also contains some osteoblasts, which actively produce new bone tissue.


What does osteogenic mean?

1. derived from or made up of bone-forming tissue. 2. of or pertaining to osteogenesis.


Bones are covered and lined by a protective tissue called periosteum The inner osteogenic layer consists primarily of?

The inner osteogenic layer primarily consists of osteoblasts, which are responsible for bone formation, as well as osteoprogenitor cells that can differentiate into osteoblasts. This layer is important for bone growth, repair, and remodeling.


What is an osteogenic cell?

Osteoblasts are cells that are mainly known for making bone. Also, they break down old and weak bone cells.Osteoblasts are cells that help construct bones. However, they do not stop working after your skeleton has finished growing. There is another type of cell known as the osteocyte that destroys small areas of bone, which are then filled in by the osteoblasts. Through this system the skeleton is reinforced and reconstructed constantly, so that weak or old spots are replaced and broken bones heal.

What is the function of nutritive muscular cells?

These cells are identical in form and function to epitheliomuscular cells; the only difference is that nutritive muscular cell processes are oriented sideways, so the myoneme, when connected, run in a circle around the polyp.
