Detailed explanation-1: -Bone tissue is unique in that it can regenerate, restoring to a fully-functional, pre-injury state. Bone is a metabolically active connective tissue that provides structural support, facilitates movement, and protects vital organs. Bone is composed of an extracellular matrix and bone cells (osteocytes).
Detailed explanation-2: -Bone, or osseous tissue, is a hard, dense connective tissue that forms most of the adult skeleton, the support structure of the body.
Detailed explanation-3: -Functions of Connective Tissues Protection is another major function of connective tissue, in the form of fibrous capsules and bones that protect delicate organs and, of course, the skeletal system. Specialized cells in connective tissue defend the body from microorganisms that enter the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Two types of bone are found in the body-cortical and trabecular. Cortical bone is dense and compact. It forms the outer layer of the bone. Trabecular bone makes up the inner layer of the bone and has a spongy, honeycomb-like structure.
Detailed explanation-5: -Bone tissue Periosteum – the dense, tough outer shell that contains blood vessels and nerves. Compact or dense tissue – the hard, smooth layer that protects the tissue within.
