Describe the osteoclasts.

Large, multinucleated, polarized, surface adjacent to bone tissue shows radical striation (brush border differentiation with long microvilli) called ruffled border. rich in vesicles, phagocytic vacuoles and lysosomes grouped under ruffled border. Cytoplasm ranges from basophilic to acidophilic (when resorption activity predominates) marking functional difference between osteoclasts
