The correct options are 2, 3, and 4.

Explanation:

Bone remodeling is defined as the life long process in which from the skeletal mature bone tissues are removed (this process is known as bone resorption), and new bone tissue is synthesized (this process is known as ossification). So, the correct options are:

-Osteoclasts are involved in the remodeling process.

-Bone remodeling is a combination of bone deposition and resorption.

-Bones are remodeled to accommodate the stresses put on them.
