Answer:
osteoblasts are the cells that form new bone.
Explanation:
They also come from the bone ,marrow and are related to structural cells. They have only one nucleus. Osteoblasts work in teams to build bone. They produce new bone called "osteoid" which is made of bone collagen and other protein.
Osteoblasts work together in groups called osteons to make the osteoid matrix (composed of protein and minerals) and release it at regulated times to form new bone tissue where it is needed most. Osteoblast formation and activity increase in response to growth factors and physical activity to make bones stronger.
