Describe what is shown in this picture.
Lysosomal enzymes are packaged in the Golgi. Lysosomes & H+ from inside the osteoclast are both released into the microenvironment. The acidic environment allows for the dissolution of the calcium phosphate of the bone…bone resorption begins taking place. The products of the bone breakdown are taken up into the osteoclast cytoplasm, further broken down & released into capillaries.
What do the 2 unlabeled arrows indicate?
