inhibits resorption activities of OC
stimulates bone deposition by osteoblasts

Growth in girth- resorption of osteons and formation of new osteons

Differentiation of cells in periosteum and new osteoid deposited in outer portion of the bone.

The thickness of the bone stays the same- the inner marrow cavity expands in size.

The marrow cavity expands into the space that was occupied by bone tissue.
