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.
