Factors Controlling Calcification of Bones | Tissues | Human | Biology

In this article we will discus about the factors controlling calcification of bones in humans. Also learn about the proportion of inorganic compounds in bone. i. Protein constituent of the cartilage has got affinity towards Ca++ and adsorbs calcium readily. However this favours the deposition of calcium as tricalcium phosphate. ii. Reduction of protein concentration in the blood and also [...]

Bone Cells: 3 Main Types of Bone Cells (With Diagram) | Human | Biology

There are three types of bone cells present in human body: 1. Osteo­blast 2. Osteocyte 3. Osteoclast. Bone Cell # 1. Osteoblast: This is concerned with bone formation and is found in the growing surface where the bony matrix is deposited.
