| The ______ are cells that dissolve the inorganic components of the calcified bone matrix. | osteoclasts |
| After bones have formed via intramembranous or endochondral ossification, what happens to the bone? | Bone is continually remodeled by osteoclasts and osteoblasts. |
| Which is a factor that directly influences bone development, growth, and repair? | Hormones |
| Cells that deposit and form new bone during osteogenesis are called | osteoblasts |
| Vitamin ______ is necessary for the proper absorption of calcium by the body and thus is vital for proper bone formation. | D } |
| ------- are responsible for the break down of the calcified extracellular matrix in bone. | 0STEOCLASTS |
| Bone remodeling occurs continually as ______ reabsorb bone tissue and ______ replace the bone. The total mass of bone remains nearly constant. | osteoclasts; osteoblasts |
| The bones of the head, neck, and trunk are part of the? and bones of the limbs are part of the ? | Axial APPENDICULAR |
| Name three factors that affect bone development, growth, and repair. | nutrition hormones physical exercise |
| Choose the two major portions of the skeleton. | Axial APPENDICULAR |
| What is the role of vitamin D in bone development? | Vitamin D increases calcium absorption in the small intestine and thus helps maintain the calcium concentrations necessary to build the bone matrix. |
