21+ Microscopic Anatomy Of Compact Bone Tissue. Describe the process of bone formation and bone remodeling from fetus through adulthood. Describe the two types of epithelial tissue and their functions.
The compact bone is composed of calcified extracellular material, the bone matrix and 3 major cell types which are * osteoblast which ssynthesize and in the bone matrix, inorganic material represents about 50% of the dry weight its weight , calcium hydroxyapatite is most abundant, but hco3. Compact bone consists of closely packed osteons or haversian systems. Bone is a tissue that forms the greatest part of the skeleton and is one of the hardest structures of the body.
Osteons are roughly cylindrical structures that can measure several millimeters long and around 0.2 mm in diameter.
Bone is a solid organ that appears pinkish white externally and deep red internally when in a fresh state. The basic microscopic unit of bone is an osteon (or haversian system). Compact bone consists of closely packed osteons or haversian systems. The osteon consists of a central canal called the osteonic (haversian).
