In bone, hydroxyapatite is overlaid on what type of scaffold?
-Collagen I
What is the range of calcium homeostasis?
9-10 mg/dL
If you have high amounts of Ca2+ what hormone is released to lower the amounts of Ca2+ by taking it into bone and increasing Ca2+ excretion?
-Calcitonin
If you have low amounts of Ca2+ what hormone is released to raise the amounts of Ca2+?
-Parathyroid hormone
Parathyroid hormone acts on osteoblasts which act on what other bone cell?
-Osteoclasts
