What is cancellous tissue?
Cancellous bone makes up about 20 percent of the human skeleton, providing structural support and flexibility without the weight of compact bone. It is found in most areas of bone that are not subject to great mechanical stress
What does the compactbone do?
Compact bone provides strength and support to bones due to its dense nature. It makes up the outer layer of most bones and protects the inner spongy bone tissue. Compact bone also contains channels for blood vessels and nerves to pass through, supporting the bone's metabolic needs.
What percent of the mass of bone is a compound called hydroxyapatite?
Hydroxyapatite makes up about 65-70% of the mass of bone. It is a mineral compound primarily composed of calcium and phosphate that provides bone with its strength and hardness.
What is the correct name in your skull?
The correct name for the bone that makes up the top part of the skull is the parietal bone. It is one of the eight bones that form the cranium, providing protection for the brain.
What makes up one third of a living bone?
Living bone tissue is made up of three main components: collagen, mineral salts (primarily calcium and phosphate), and water. The collagen provides flexibility and support, the mineral salts give strength and hardness, and water helps maintain the bone's structure and facilitate metabolic processes within the bone cells.
What is the bone that makes up most of the posterior surfaces of the orbit?
Sphenoid Bone
What type of cell makes up bone?
Osteoblast makes new bone tissue
What makes up the living tissue of bone?
The bone marrow
Which bone tissue makes up the skeleton?
Um...bone?
Dense tissue that makes up the walls of a bone?
Compact bone.
What Is the bone that makes up the center of the skeleton?
its called the spongy bone
What kind of bone makes up the shaft of bones?
cancellous bone
What makes up the interior of the epiphysis of the long bone?
Cancellous or spongy bone.
What makes up a bone marrow?
tissue
Bone that makes up the collarbone?
Clavicle
What type of bone makes up the majority of the diaphysis of long bones like the humerus?
The type of bone that makes up the majority of the diaphysis of a long bone such as the humerus is compact bone. The diaphysis is the shaft of the bone that contains bone marrow and adipose tissue.
What type of bone tissue makes up the dense hard outer layer of bone?
Cortical bone tissue makes up the dense hard outer layer of bone. It is also known as compact bone and provides structure and protection to the inner spongy bone tissue.
