Answer»

Answer:

Bone matrix

The hardness and RIGIDITY of bone is due to the presence of mineral salt in the osteoid matrix, which is a crystalline complex of calcium and PHOSPHATE (hydroxyapatite). Calcified bone contains about 25% ORGANIC matrix (2-5% of which are CELLS), 5% water and 70% inorganic mineral (hydroxyapatite).
