Question
Answer
what type of bone cell is located in a individual lacunae?   osteocytes  
🗑
mature bone cells are   osteocytes  
🗑
these cells do not divide within lacunae   osteocytes  
🗑
most numerous bone cells are   osteocytes  
🗑
these types of cells maintain bone matrix   osteocytes  
🗑
will participate in the repair of damaged bone   osteocytes  
🗑
can convert to osteoblasts or osteoprogenitor cells   osteocytes  
🗑
types of cells that build bone   osteoblasts  
🗑
thee cells produce new bone matrix by depositing calcium salts and proteins   osteoblasts  
🗑
they become osteocytes once trapped in the matrix   osteoblasts  
🗑

these cells breaks down bone   osteoclasts  
🗑
come from cells that produce white blood cells   osteoclasts  
🗑
derived from stem cells that produce monocytes and macrophages   osteoclasts  
🗑

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
