this cell creates collagen
fibroblasts
which cell is involved in the clotting process? erythrocytes thrombocytes or osteoclasts?
thrombocytes
what cell breaks down bone tissue? osteoclasts or osteoblasts?
osteoclasts break down bone tissue. osteoblasts build bone tissue

gap junctions
exocrine vs endocrine
exocrine glands secrete substances into a ductal system to an epithelial surface i.e. sebaceous glands endocrine glands secrete products directly into the bloodstream i.e. testes, ovaries
