Chapter 29, Problem 6RQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: The way by which the structure of the bone allows this remodeling to happen.
Introduction: Bone remodeling is a process where the mature bone tissue is removed from the skeleton through a process known as resorption and a new bone tissue is formed by a process called ossification.

Bone gains its rigidity from brick‑hard deposits amidst living cells. Yet we cannot build a large stone skyscraper from a small stone house without breaking the house apart. Yet our bones grow from small hard bones to large hard bones without ever breaking apart into soft vulnerable tissue. How is that accomplished?
In this type of ossification mesenchymal cells in the embryonic skeleton gather together and begin to differentiate into specialized cells that form a template of the future bone. Ossification of flat bones begins as mesenchymal cells form a template of the future bone. They then differentiate into osteoblasts at the ossification center. Osteoblasts secrete the extracellular matrix and deposit calcium, which hardens the matrix. The non-mineralized portion of the bone or osteoid continues to form around blood vessels, forming spongy bone. Connective tissue in the matrix differentiates into red bone marrow in the fetus. The spongy bone is remodeled into a thin layer of compact bone on the surface of the spongy bone. The process depicted in the description above and on this slide is (check all that apply):
