During endochondral ossification
|
|
hyaline cartilage turns into bone
|
|
|
fibrocartilage turns into bone
|
|
|
elastic cartilage turns into bone
|
|
|
bone differentiates into cartilage
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -This process involves the replacement of hyaline cartilage with bone. It begins when mesoderm-derived mesenchymal cells differentiate into chondrocytes. Chondrocytes proliferate rapidly and secrete an extracellular matrix to form the cartilage model for bone.
Detailed explanation-2: -The cartilage is not converted to bone, but is gradually replaced by it. The osteoblasts and blood vessels invade the area of degenerating cartilage.
Detailed explanation-3: -Endochondral ossification is the mechanism responsible for the formation of all long bones of the axial skeleton (vertebrae and ribs) and the appendicular skeleton (limbs).
