2. C. Microscopic Features of Bone a)Osteocytes - bone cells that sit in small pocket called lacunae. b)Lacunae – are found between narrow sheets of calcified matrix that are known as lamellae. c)Small channels called canaliculi, radiate through the matrix, interconnecting lacunae and linking them to nearby blood vessels.

Bone Formation and Growth Intramembranous Ossification (cartilage is not present) –Ossification—Process of converting other tissues to bone –Forms flat bones of skull, mandible, clavicle Endochondral ossification –Forms long bones, spongy bone to compact bone Copyright © 2007 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings
