Do bones contain living cells?

Answer 1

I don't konw this,but bones are considered "living organs" because they have nerves and blood vessels.

Answer 2

Yes.

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.

OSTEOBLASTS are the cells that form new bone. They also come from the bone marrow and are related to structural cells. They have only one nucleus. Osteoblasts work in teams to build bone. They produce new bone called "osteoid" which is made of bone collagen and other protein. Then they control calcium and mineral deposition. They are found on the surface of the new bone. When the team of osteoblasts has finished filling in a cavity, the cells become flat and look like pancakes. They line the surface of the bone. These old osteoblasts are also called LINING CELLS. They regulate passage of calcium into and out of the bone, and they respond to hormones by making special proteins that activate the osteoclasts.

OSTEOCYTES are cells inside the bone. They also come from osteoblasts. Some of the osteoblasts turn into osteocytes while the new bone is being formed, and the osteocytes then get surrounded by new bone. They are not isolated, however, because they send out long branches that connect to the other osteocytes. These cells can sense pressures or cracks in the bone and help to direct where osteoclasts will dissolve the bone.

Answer 3

There are three special types of cells that are found only in the bone.
These cell names all start with "OSTEO" because that is the Greek word for bone.

Answer 4

Do Bones Have Cells

Answer 5

Yes they do. I am a medical student, and we learned that everything in your body has cells. The bone cells are called osteocytes. If you didnt have these you wouldnt be able to heal after a broken bone or fractured bone.

Answer 6

First of all, every part of our body is made of cells, including our bones. Our cells are the living thing that needs nutrients. If our bones aren't composed of cells, then it wouldn't need calcium. Think about it.

Answer 7

Yes. Osteocytes.

Answer 8

yes bones are made of cells called osteocytes..

Answer 9

Yes,of course

Answer 10

Every part of your body have cells
