2 True/False: Mark the following statements as true (T) or false (F). If the statement is false, correct it to make it a true statement. The periosteum contains osteoblasts and osteocytes. Osteoclasts secrete bone matrix. Compact bone is the hard, outer bone. Compact bone is composed of spicules called trabeculae. Spongy bone houses red and yellow bone marrow. Circumferential lamellae are located between osteons.
