Down
- 1. the formation of blood cellular components
- 3. Cells capable of forming bone by secreting osteoid (proteins such as collagen) that form a bone matrix, and eventually mineralized bone
- 4. made up of a dense spider web-like netting of bone called trabeculae
- 5. Fracture type which is a typical skull fracture
- 6. functions in hematopoiesis, and, in a healthy adult, produces more than 500 billion blood cells a day
- 8. Results from a twisting force
- 11. contains cells that resist force and that also respond to external stress to initiate bone remodeling
- 12. Once an osteoblast is completely surrounded by bone matrix, it stops secreting osteoid and becomes an osteocyte
