Explanation
In bones, there are different types of cells involved in bone formation and maintenance. Osteocytes are the mature cells that are found within the bone tissue. They play a crucial role in maintaining the health and structure of bones. Osteoblasts, on the other hand, are responsible for bone formation. They are involved in the production of new bone tissue. Both osteocytes and osteoblasts are important for the overall health and function of bones.
