    Osteoblasts are the cells in the bone tissue that are responsible to form bone tissue itself. This is the process that allows bones to grow. To counteract this process, osteoclasts, another type of cell from the bone tissue, have the role to break down bone tissue by molecular processes - enzymatic and chemical.
