GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Bone ossification, or osteogenesis, is the process of bone formation. This process begins between the sixth and seventh weeks of embryonic development and continues until about age twenty-five; although this varies slightly based on the individual.

Detailed explanation-2: -: the natural process of bone formation. : the hardening (as of muscular tissue) into a bony substance. : a mass or particle of ossified tissue.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are two major modes of bone formation, or osteogenesis, and both involve the transformation of a preexisting mesenchymal tissue into bone tissue. The direct conversion of mesenchymal tissue into bone is called intramembranous ossification. This process occurs primarily in the bones of the skull.
