CONCLUSION

In conclusion, bone physiology plays a critical role in the structural integrity, locomotion, and overall health of ani­mals. Throughout this chapter, we have explored various aspects of bone physiology, including bone composition, development, remodeling, mechanical properties, and fac­tors influencing bone health. Bones serve as dynamic organs that undergo constant remodeling in response to mechani­cal, hormonal, and environmental cues. Understanding the mechanisms underlying bone physiology is essential for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of bone diseases and disorders in animals.
