At more advanced stages than the figure on the previous page, observe a larger region of bone matrix (highlighted in orange), surrounded by osteoblasts and osteoprogenitor cells (in blue).
Within the matrix, two osteocytes (in green) are observed.
This is the beginning of the formation of a bone trabecula.
Sveral of these groups of cells are formed until they join to form a whole bone.
