Bone Tissue Trivia Questions: Quiz!
(437).jpg "Bone Tissue Trivia Questions: Quiz! - Quiz")
Bone tissue is a mineralized connective tissue, which employs important functions in the body, such as support and safeguard of other tissues and mineral storage. Bone is a fragile structure depending on the different loading grades, and it depends on the mineral content that also strengthens the bone. Collagen provides the bone with elasticity.
