It consists of rings of bone matrix called __________ that surround a structure called the __________ that contains blood vessels and nerves. Other structures called __________ also contain blood vessels and nerves. Osteocytes are housed in and communicate via.”
Introduction:
In the skeletal system, bones are the major organ. The bones in our body have different types of tissues. These tissues are osseous tissue, dense regular, irregular collagenous connective tissues, and the bone marrow.
