What else can I help you with?
Bone cells that are located within spaces called?
Lacunae
Tiny canals connecting lacunae?
The tiny canals that connect the lacunae are the canaliculi, the larger canals are the Haversian canals.
Mature bone cells in lacunae are called?
Osteocytes. These cells are housed within the lacunae of the bone matrix and play a key role in maintaining bone health and structure.
What is found between layers of concentric lamellae?
Between layers of concentric lamellae, which are found in bone tissue, there are small spaces called lacunae. These lacunae contain osteocytes, the mature bone cells that maintain the bone matrix. Additionally, tiny channels called canaliculi connect the lacunae, allowing for communication and nutrient exchange between osteocytes and the blood supply in the bone.
What are extensions of lacunae called?
cytoplasmic extensions
What is the canal that connects lacunae to osteocytes?
The canal that connects lacunae to osteocytes is called a canaliculus. Canaliculi are small channels that allow for communication and nutrient exchange between osteocytes located within lacunae in compact bone tissue.
Minute canals that connect lacunae are called?
Canaliculi. Their function is to allow nutrients and waste to pass between osteocytes within the bone matrix.
Which bone contains osteocytes and lacunae?
Osteocytes and lacunae are found in the mineralized extracellular matrix of bone tissue, not within a specific bone. Osteocytes are the primary cells of mature bone, residing within small cavities called lacunae.
What is the function of the lacunae?
The lacunae is the space that holds the cartilage in the bones of the human body. This allows us to move, walk, run, and jump without feeling pain of the bones hitting each other.
What are the spaces within bone or cartilage which house the living cells called?
lacunae
When chondrocytes in lacunae divide and form new matrix it leads to an expansion of the cartilage tissue from within. This process is called?
