Woven bone select one: a. has its collagen fibers randomly oriented. b. has a porous appearance. c. is organized into thin sheets of tissue. d. is very light in weight. e. is not easily restructured.

A . Has its collagen fibers randomly orientated.

Explanation:

In the microscopic anatomy of the bone, an osteon (basic microscope unit of the bone) can be arranged into two categories; woven bone or lamellar bone.

As the name suggests woven bone is characterized by the random orientation of the collagen fibers . These collagen fibers haphazardly form to give the visual appearance of an intertwined (woven) network of collagen fibers.

Due to the randomness of the collagen fibers orientation woven bone is thus mechanically weaker than lamellar bone. Woven bone is formed/produced when osteoblasts produce osteoids rapidly within the bone matrix thus woven bone has the ability to form quickly as needed.

Woven bone is thus immature bone or pathologic bone with no stress orientation, it has a high percentage of osteocytes per unit volume and a high rate of turnover.

doctors i believe if i'm wrong sorry
