What do you call the deposition of calcium salts into bone tissue?
calcification
What tissue has lacuna calcium salts and blood vessels?
Osseous tissue has calcium, salts, and blood vessels.
Calcium salts form the bulk of the inorganic material in bone What is the function of the calcium salts?
Structure and Stability -JSO and strength
What is the importance of minor inorganic salts to living organisms?
Minor inorganic salts help to maintain the pH of the living organism. They also act as catalysts in certain biochemical reactions.
What tissue has lacunae and calcium salts?
bone (osseus) tissue
Why is the bone in our bodt hard?
High mineral content (calcium salts).
Why can a bone not grow interstitially?
Because of the hard calcium salts in the matrix
What tissue forms when cartilage gradually becomes impregnated with calcium salts?
Tissue that forms cartilage gradually becomes impregnated with calcium salts.
When does cartilage start to be replaced by bone?
Inorganic Calcium salts
The hardness of bone is due to what?
The hardness of bone is due to the calcium salts deposited in it.The exceptional hardness of bone, which allows it to resist compression, is attributed to the presence of inorganic hydroxyapatites. Hydroxyapatites such as calcium phosphates are particularly important for bone hardness. Organic substances such as collagen fibers contribute to tensile strength, but not to hardness.the presence of inorganic hydroxyapatites.
What is bone deposition?
it is the formation of bones. This is the principal role of calcitriol. It requires both calcium and phosphate.
What is the role of bone salts and the organic matrix in making the bone both hard and flexible?
Bone salts (calcium, mainly) lend hardness; the protein-rich organic matrix permits some flexibility
