Select the incorrect statement w.r.t the structure of a bone
The matrix of bone is present in the form of layers called lamellae
Lamallae consist of fluid filled spaces called lacunae
Lacunae contain bone cells called chondrocytes
The matrix is hard because of the presence of salts such as calcium phosphate
As we have learned
Types of cells in Lacunae -
Three types of cells are present in spaces called Lacunae in bone.
1. Osteoblast (bone forming cells) secretes collagen fibres.
2. Osteocytes (bone maintaining cells) - can secrete or absorb matrix.
3. Osteoclasts (bone cleaning cells) Destroy bone matrix and formed by phagocytic monocytes.
