vredina [299]

It now extends to other sciences, including human sciences, information sciences and computer science. Sometimes we call it "taxonomy" to describe the result of a taxonomic activity, that is to say a classification.

The traditional classification is based on a fixed hierarchy of categories (taxon ranks), defined as follows:

Reign (or Kingdom) (there are currently six) → Division (or phylum) → class → order → family → gender → species.

gavmur [86]
Answer;
Insulin and the growth hormone
The hormones that are involved in building and maintaining healthy bone tissues are Insulin and growth hormone


Explanation;
Insulin has some anabolic properties for bone. It is uncertain whether insulin stimulates bone directly or indirectly by increasing muscle work and thus skeletal loading. 
Growth hormone is a peptide hormone secreted from the pituitary gland under the control of hypothalamus. It directly and through IGF-I stimulates osteoblast proliferation and activity, promoting bone formation. Additionally it stimulates osteoclast differentiation and activity,promoting bone resorption.
