GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The principal cell of connective tissues is the fibroblast, an immature connective tissue cell that has not yet differentiated. This cell makes the fibers found in nearly all of the connective tissues. Fibroblasts are motile, able to carry out mitosis, and can synthesize whichever connective tissue is needed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fundamental cell types, characteristic of each kind of connective tissue, are responsible for producing the matrix. Immature forms of these cells (whose names end in blast) secrete the fibers and ground substance of the matrix.

Detailed explanation-3: -As a result, it changes in structure, becoming an osteocyte, the primary cell of mature bone and the most common type of bone cell. Each osteocyte is located in a space (lacuna) surrounded by bone tissue. Osteocytes maintain the mineral concentration of the matrix via the secretion of enzymes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Osteoblasts are cells that form bone tissue. Osteoblasts can synthesize and secrete bone matrix and participate in the mineralization of bone to regulate the balance of calcium and phosphate ions in developing bone. Osteoblasts are derived from osteoprogenitor cells.
