Question

Bones are elastic tissues.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. Bones are hard and non-elastic tissues.
2. The inorganic salts of calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus in the matrix of bone make it hard, strong, and brittle. That is why the bone gets broken.
3. Bones form a supportive framework, protect delicate internal organs (like the brain, lungs, and heart), and help in locomotion.
4. Red blood cells and white blood cells are formed in the red bone marrow of long bones.

Final answer: The given statement is false.
