Process of Ossification in Human Body | Connective Tissues | Biology

Development of bone begins from mesoderm in the embryonic life (from sixth week) and a good number of bones of the human body continue to grow until a person reaches about twenty-fifth years. There are two processes of ossification-intramembranous and intracartilaginous (endochondral). The bones of the cranial vault and the mandible are membranous in origin. The bones of the limbs, [...]

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. This cell is strongly baso­philic and cuboidal or pyramidal in shape and its nucleus is large with a single [...]
