Question

Which of the following statements regarding bone cells is true a Osteoblasts form bone, osteocytes break down bone, osteoclasts detect strain, lining cells line the bone O) O b Osteoblasts break down bone, osteoclasts form bone, osteocytes detect strain, lining cells line the bone O c Osteoblasts form bone, osteoclasts break down bone, osteocytes detect strain, lining cells line the bone O d Osteoblasts form bone, osteoclasts break down bone, osteocytes detect strain. There are only 3 types of bone O e. Osteoblasts break down bone, osteocytes form bone, osteoclasts detect strain, lining cells line the bone

Explanation / Answer

osteoblast- are the cells found in bone marrow. These cells are responsible for the synthesis of bone

Osteocytes are the bone cells. They form a lining of the bone surface and help in intracellular transport and help in detecting strain. When they detect strain they give the signal for bone formation of bone resorption.

An osteoclast is bone reabsorption. Minerals which are reabsorbed are used for bone formation.

So option A is correct.
