A 90-year-old woman is brought to the emergency department 30 minutes after she fell while
climbing the steps into her house. Physical examination shows tenderness over the right shin area.
An x-ray of the right lower extremity shows a fracture of the tibia. A DEXA scan shows decreased
bone density. Increased activity of which of the following cell types is the most likely cause of the
decrease in bone mass in this patient?
(A)Chondrocytes
(B) Osteoblasts
(C) Osteoclasts
(D) Osteocytes

A 72-year-old man is brought to the emergency department 1 hour after he injured his right thigh when he fell off an all- terrain vehicle. Physical examination shows an offset displacement in the right thigh. An X-ray shows fracture of the right femur. During surgical repair, a metal plate attached with screws is used to align the bone during healing. Which of the following structures must be protected during the operation because it is the source of new bone formation?
Bone marrow
Cancellous bone
Dense bone
Joint cartilage
Periosteum
Because of the constant exchange of blood calcium and bone calcium, the concentration of calcium ions in the blood and tissue is very steady. Describe the process of calcium mobilization in bone tissue.
