New cards

melanocytes

skin color, protects skin from UV

25
New cards

osteoclasts

resorb bone (cleave it down)

26
New cards

osteocytes

mature bone cells, maintain bone matrix

27

middle channel of osteon, blood vessels and nerves

34
New cards

perforating canals

connect blood and nerves to central canal
