Name the tissue forms much of the fetal skeleton and covers the articular surfaces of long bones
A
Reticular tissue
B
mesenchyme
C
Elastic Cartilage
D
hyaline cartilage
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hyaline cartilage is the most widespread and is the type that makes up the embryonic skeleton.

Detailed explanation-2: -periosteum, dense fibrous membrane covering the surfaces of bones, consisting of an outer fibrous layer and an inner cellular layer (cambium).

Detailed explanation-3: -Early in fetal development, the skeleton is made of cartilage. Cartilage is a type of dense connective tissue that is composed of collagen and/or elastin fibers and cells called chondrocytes, which are all set in a gel-like substance called the extracellular matrix.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hyaline cartilage tissue (also referred to as hyaline connective tissue or hyaline tissue) is a type of a cartilage tissue. It is the most common type of cartilage characterized by a glossy and smooth appearance. Where is hyaline cartilage found? Hyaline cartilage is found around the bones of free-moving joints.

Detailed explanation-5: -Long bones have a thick outside layer of compact bone and an inner medullary cavity containing bone marrow. The ends of a long bone contain spongy bone and an epiphyseal line. The epiphyseal line is a remnant of an area that contained hyaline cartilage that grew during childhood to lengthen the bone.
