Ossification centre

Histological areas of a gradual transition from connective tissue to bone. Light, pinkish bone matrix is found between the osteoblasts. Depending on the state of development of the bone, it is occasionally possible to find bone trabeculae which are lined by a layer of osteoblasts. These osteblasts are depositing the first lamellae on the already existing trabeculae. The trabeculae will therefore have a core of woven bone, which is surrounded by lamellar bone. Compare the shapes, sizes and frequencies of lacunae in lamellar and woven bone if both types of bone are present.
