If osteoclasts are more active than osteoblasts?

If osteoclasts are more active than osteoblasts, there is a net decrease in bone density as osteoclasts break down bone tissue faster than osteoblasts can form new bone. This can lead to conditions like osteoporosis where bone becomes weak and brittle. It is important to maintain a balance between osteoclast and osteoblast activity for healthy bone remodeling.


Why would it be impossible for bones to grow from within?

Bones cannot grow from within because they are not living tissues. Bones are formed and maintained by cells called osteoblasts and osteoclasts on the surface of existing bone tissue. These cells add new bone material to the outside of bones rather than from within.


Why is bone lost faster with aging than it is replaced?

Bone loss accelerates with aging due to a decrease in the activity of osteoblasts (cells that build bone) and an increase in the activity of osteoclasts (cells that break down bone). This imbalance leads to a net loss of bone tissue, resulting in conditions such as osteoporosis. Factors like hormonal changes, decreased physical activity, and inadequate nutrition can further contribute to accelerated bone loss in aging individuals.


Osteoclasts in bone tissue have the effect of raising calcium levels in the blood What?

Osteoclasts break down bone, which will essentially increase the amount of free calcium in the blood stream. Osteoblasts "build" bones from the free calcium in the blood. Calcium is involved in muscle contraction, so if you lack the necessary calcium in your diet, your body will actually break down bone material in order to obtain the necessary calcium for proper muscle function.


Does a bone cell have organelles?

There are three special types of cells found only in bone. They are: Osteoclasts , which are large cells the dissolve the bone. They originate in the bone marrow and are related to white blood cells and are found on the surface of the bone mineral next to dissolving bone. Osteoblasts, which form new bone. Originating in the bone marrow, they have one nucleus. They work in teams to build bone from bone collagen and other protein. They also control calcium and mineral deposition, and are found on the surface of new bone. When they have finished filling in a cavity, they become flat and line the surface of the bone. They regulate passage of calcium into and out of bone. In addition, they respond to hormones by making special proteins that activate the osteoclasts. Osteocytes, which are cells inside the bone. Osteoclasts and osteoblasts may turn into osteocytes white new bone is being formed, and then osteocytes get surrounded by new bone. Osteocytes send out long branches that connect to other osteocytes. They can sense pressures or cracks in bone and help direct where osteoclasts dissolve bone.

What make bones heal fast compared to nerve or muscle?

Bone is constantly remodeled during much of life by osteoblasts and osteoclasts. As such, the repair to a broken bone heals faster because it models the bone back in place, and sometimes it will heal stronger than it was before the injury.
