What is a major Submembranous site of osteoclasts?

major submembranous sites of osteoclasts. endosteum and periosteum.

What are the two membranous sites of osteoprogenitor cells?

Osteoprogenitor cells are located on the endosteal and periosteal surface of the bone and inner surface of the Haversian canals (see Fig. 6.7).

Are osteoclasts found in the periosteum?

The periosteum lines the outer surface of the diaphysis of the bone. It has a cellular inner layer, consisting of osteoblasts, and a fibrous outer layer. It contains osteoblasts and osteoclasts.

What is endosteum and periosteum?

Endosteum covers the inside of bones, and surrounds the medullary cavity. The outer surface of a bone is lined by a thin layer of connective tissue that is very similar in morphology and function to endosteum. It is called the periosteum, or the periosteal surface.

What is the site of osteocytes?

Compact Bone Between the rings of matrix, the bone cells (osteocytes) are located in spaces called lacunae. Small channels (canaliculi) radiate from the lacunae to the osteonic (haversian) canal to provide passageways through the hard matrix.

Where are osteoclasts found?

bone
OSTEOCLASTS are large cells that dissolve the bone. They come from the bone marrow and are related to white blood cells. They are formed from two or more cells that fuse together, so the osteoclasts usually have more than one nucleus. They are found on the surface of the bone mineral next to the dissolving bone.

Where is periosteum located?

The periosteum is a thin layer of connective tissue that covers the outer surface of a bone in all places except at joints (which are protected by articular cartilage).

Where do osteoclasts reside?

OSTEOCLASTS are large cells that dissolve the bone. They come from the bone marrow and are related to white blood cells. They are formed from two or more cells that fuse together, so the osteoclasts usually have more than one nucleus. They are found on the surface of the bone mineral next to the dissolving bone.
