How long does it take for a bone to completely heal and return to its original shape?
The time it takes for a bone to completely heal can vary depending on factors such as the type of fracture, the location of the injury, and the individual's overall health. Generally, bones take about 6 to 12 weeks to heal, but it can take longer for larger bones or complicated fractures. While the bone may unite and become strong within this timeframe, it can take several additional months for it to fully remodel and return to its original shape. Full recovery may also involve physical therapy to restore function and strength.

Why is bone viscoelastic?
Bone is viscoelastic because it exhibits both viscous (flow-like) and elastic (recovery-like) properties when subjected to load. The organic matrix (collagen) provides elasticity, allowing bone to deform and return to its original shape, while the mineral component (hydroxyapatite) provides stiffness. The combination of these components results in bone's viscoelastic behavior, which enables it to withstand various mechanical stresses.

What is the shape of the chief cells of the bone?

How does the bone remodel?
Bone responds to pressures. A person can look at a skeleton and tell if that person is left or right handed. The skeleton began even but the pressure or influences by using it makes it thicker. It lays down more bone using osteoblasts (bone+Builders). When a bone is broken, the osteoblasts form a bridge which is very thick. When it is mended, the osteoclast (bone+breaker) break down the extra bone to form the original (or close to the original) shape. This double process is also called bone remodeling.

What bone shape is a patella?
The class of bone based on its shape that the patella is a good example of are sesamoid bones. The patella is also known as the kneecap.
What process determines bone shape?
Bone shape is primarily determined by genetic factors, specifically the genes that play a role in bone development and growth. Additionally, mechanical forces such as weight-bearing and muscle activity can influence bone shape through a process known as bone remodeling. Furthermore, hormonal factors, nutrition, and overall health can also play a role in bone formation and shape.
