Hello everyone,

 

I just started biology and I have lots of clarifications :) If red blood cells are created in the bone marrow how do they enter the circulatory system. Do they permeate through the blood vessels?

Bones are actually quite well-vascularized, mostly to allow release and re-deposition of calcium, but this also applies to the marrow.
