Chapter 6, Problem 4CYR
Mark the following statements about bone tissue as true or false. If a statement is false, correct it to make a true statement.
a. The primary mineral in the inorganic matrix is hydroxyapatite.
b. The inorganic matrix of bone is solely responsible for the strength of bone tissue.
c. Collagen fibers are one of the predominant parts of the inorganic matrix.
d. The collagen fibers of bone help it to resist torsion and tension.
e. Osteoblasts are responsible for bone resorption, and osteoclasts are responsible for bone deposition.
f. Osteocytes are mature and less active osteoblasts that have become surrounded by bone ECM.
