Spongy Bone
Unit of spongy bone
Trabeculae

Sinuses
Bones are rich of what?
Nerves
Blood Supply
Bone tissue is composed mostly of what?
Extracellular Matrix
What are two types of extracellular matrix?
Inorganic Matrix
Organic Matrix
Mostly made up of hydroxyapatite crystal (calcium and phosphorus salts)
Makes bones strong and resistant to compression
Makes up 65% of bone's total weight
Inorganic Matrix
Consists of collagen fibers and usual ECM components
Makes up 35% of bone's total weight
Organic Matrix
Most abundant protein in the body that gives bones strength and flexibility
Collagen
What are four types of bone cells?
Osteogenic
Osteoblasts
Osteocytes
Osteoclasts
Osteogenic Cells
Flattened cells
turn into osteoblasts when stimulated by specific chemical signals
Osteoblast Cells
Immature bone cells
lay down bone matrix (collagen)
Perform bone Deposition
Osteocyte Cells
Mature Bone cells
Maintain bone extracellular matrix
Osteoclast Cells
responsible for bone resorption
use enzymes to break down bone matrix
The process of bone formation
