  1. Cells responsible for reabsorption of bone: The answer is osteoclasts. Osteoclasts are specialized cells that break down bone tissue, a process known as bone resorption. This is essential for the maintenance, repair, and remodeling of bones.

  2. Spongy bone: The answer is cancellous bone. Spongy bone, also known as cancellous or trabecular bone, is found at the ends of long bones and in the interior of other bones. It has a porous, honeycomb-like structure that is lighter and less dense than compact bone.

  3. Breastbone: The answer is the sternum. The sternum, commonly known as the breastbone, is a long, flat bone located in the central part of the chest. It connects to the ribs via cartilage and forms the front of the rib cage, helping to protect the heart and lungs.
