When bone cells divide they must produce cells exact copies of themselves.

What is the name of the cavity that contains the bone cells themselves?

The bone cells are contained within small spaces called lacunae, which are located within the mineralized matrix of the bone tissue. These lacunae are connected to each other by tiny channels called canaliculi, allowing for communication and nutrient exchange between the bone cells.


How many cells does a bone marrow have?

Bone marrow contains two types of stem cells: hemopoietic (which can produce blood cells) and stromal (which can produce fat, cartilage and bone). But the number of cells depend on which bone it is. The total number of cells in our body cannot be counted accurately However the total number of cell in an average human being is about 10^13 to 10^14


Why can't red blood cells reproduce?

Red blood cells lack a nucleus, which is necessary for cell division and reproduction. This absence of a nucleus means they are unable to make new copies of themselves through the process of cell division. Instead, red blood cells are constantly produced by the bone marrow to replace old or damaged cells.


Why can you not just use stem cells from adult bone marrow?

While adult bone marrow does contain stem cells, they are limited in their ability to differentiate into other cell types compared to embryonic stem cells. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, meaning they can develop into any cell type in the body, making them more versatile for regenerative medicine and research. Additionally, obtaining embryonic stem cells does not require invasive procedures as collecting adult bone marrow does.


The bone resorbing cells are called?

Osteoclasts are the bone-resorbing cells responsible for breaking down and resorbing bone tissue. They play a critical role in bone remodeling and maintenance of calcium balance in the body.

If There are five main types of bone cells in bone tissue what they are?

. Osteogenic cells respond to traumas, such as fractures, by giving rise to bone-forming cells and bone-destroying cells. Osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) synthesize and secrete unmineralized ground substance and are found in areas of high metabolism within the bone. Osteocytes are mature bone cells made from osteoblasts that have made bone tissue around themselves. These cells maintain healthy bone tissue by secreting enzymes and controlling the bone mineral content; they also control the calcium release from the bone tissue to the blood. Osteoclasts are large cells that break down bone tissue. They are very important to bone growth, healing, and remodeling. The last type of cells are bone-lining cells. These are made from osteoblasts along the surface of most bones in an adult. Bone-lining cells are thought to regulate the movement of calcium and phosphate into and out of the bone.http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/biology/humananatomy/skeletal/cells.htmlholy cow ur good. thanx, thisll help me on my project. yahoo!


Why is the bone marrow is important?

because it produces red blood cells since red blood cells cant reproduce themselves because they lack a nucleus


Are bone cells made inside your bone?

yes, i think. how can it be call bone cells if its outside the bone??

Osteoclast cells are defined as?

Bone cells that resorb bone tissue.


What cells responsible for maintaining the daily cellular activities of bone tissue?

Osteoclasts which dissolve old bone cells, Osteoblasts which create new bone cells, and Osteocytes mature bone cells that were once osteoblasts which regulate bone development.

A mineral needed by bone cells?

A mineral needed by bone cells is called calcium. It is essential for structure, strength, and growth of the bones and bone cells.
