Cells that secrets the matrix for
Bone formation. Building g materials needed to build the bone
Osteoblasts

Periosteum

What are general functions of the bone?
- Supports body by providing a framework for the attachment of other tissues me organs
- storage of calcium and phosphate ions.
- production of red blood cells( in the marrow)
- protection of soft tissue and proms
- allow movement by providing a place for muscle to attach
The end of the bone closest to the trunk of the body.
Proximal epiphysis
Is the end of the bone of the farthest tot he trunk of the body
Distal epiphysis
Bones are covered. Made of hyaline. Cartilage tissue
Articular cartilage
What is osteon
Each functional unit of the bone
At the center of each Oreos contains the blood vessel to nourish the bone
Central canals
The cells are all connected back to the nutrient supply through tiny canals
Canaliculi
Each layer of a Lamellae contains pits
Lacunae
Thin calcified played from the ring like. Concentric layers
Lamellae
