Answer: From the above, the functions of osteocytes are not appropriately matched

Explanation: Osteoclast: functions in bone absorption, breaks bone tissue, degrades bone to initiate normal bone remodeling, mediate bone loss in pathologic conditions by increasing resorptive activity

Osteoblast: responsible for new bone formation

Osteocytes: Used for exchange of waste and nutrients through gap junctions
