Bone tissue. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section through an osteoclast bone cell in reabsorbing bone matrix,showing the cell's nucleus (round,centre). Osteoclasts remodel bone by degrading and reabsorbing it in response to growth or changing mechanical stress. A border of complex branching microprojections (thread-like) can be seen anchoring the cell to the bone matrix. Magnification: x2500 when printed 10 centimetres wide | |
