Osteoclasts in bone tissue have what effect?
Osteoclasts cut away the calcium from the bones.
What is lined with osteoclasts?
Periosteum
What bone cells brake bones down?
Osteoclasts are large cells that break down bone tissue
The cells responsible for the re-absorption of bone are?
Osteoclasts are responsible for bone resorption, while osteoblasts are responsible for bone formation.
What cells produced by fusion of monocytes?
The fusion of monocytes gives rise to multinucleated cells known as osteoclasts. Osteoclasts are responsible for breaking down bone tissue during bone remodeling and resorption processes.
Since osteoclasts remodel bone they are probably responsible for creating?
osteoclasts break down bones, osteoblasts build them up
Large multinucleated cells that can dissolve the bony matrix are called?
Osteoclasts are large multinucleated cells that can dissolve the bony matrix by secreting acids and enzymes. They play a key role in bone remodeling and resorption.
Where are osteoclasts most abundant?
Bones.
Osteoblasts and osteoclasts are found?
bone
What is the forming of compact bone?
osteoclasts
What type of cell breaks down bone tissue?
Osteoclasts are the cells responsible for breaking down bone tissue in a process known as bone resorption. They secrete acid and enzymes that degrade the bone matrix, allowing for the remodelling and repair of bones.
Which bone cells type is derived from white blood cells?
Osteoclasts are bone cells derived from white blood cells, specifically monocytes. Osteoclasts are responsible for breaking down and resorbing bone tissue during the bone remodeling process.
