Drag each label into the proper position to identify the type of bone cell described: Parathyroid hormone inhibits these cells from synthesizing collagen. Calcitriol causes these cells to differentiate into osteoclasts. Calcitonin causes these cells to become more active. Bone building cells. Bone resorbing cells. Stem cells. These cells should become more active when blood calcium levels are high. Massive, multinucleate cells. Overactivity of these cells could contribute to hypocalcemia. Parathyroid hormone causes these cells to become more active. Bone cells encased in matrix. Involved with bone deposition. Osteogenic cells Osteoblasts Osteoclasts Osteocytes

Bone is a dynamic tissue constantly undergoing change. As shown in the diagram below, two sets of bone cells work in opposition to one another to maintain bone homeostasis. Osteoblasts build bone, while osteoclasts break down bone. Blood calcium levels change in response to these cell activities. Osteoblasts Osteoclasts Bone building Bone breakdown Calcium in blood Calcium in blood Calcitonin is a hormone produced by the thyroid gland. Calcitonin is released whenever blood calcium levels go up. Calcitonin travels through the blood to bone, where it activates one of the two types of bone cells and inhibits the other type. Predict the type of cells that will be activated by calcitonin. Predict the type of cells that will be inhibited by calcitonin. Justify your responses.
