A
Reticular tissue
B
mesenchyme
C
Elastic Cartilage
D
hyaline cartilage
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Endochondral ossification involves the replacement of hyaline cartilage with bony tissue. Most of the bones of the skeleton are formed in this manner. These bones are called endochondral bones. In this process, the future bones are first formed as hyaline cartilage models.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hyaline cartilage is found lining bones in joints (articular cartilage). It is also present inside bones, serving as a center of ossification or bone growth. In addition, hyaline cartilage forms the embryonic skeleton.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hyaline cartilage It lines your joints and caps the ends of your bones. Hyaline cartilage at the ends of your bones is sometimes referred to as articular cartilage.

Detailed explanation-4: -The fetal skeleton is made up of hyaline cartilage which is completely replaced by bone tissue by the time of birth. The fetal skeleton is partially made up of elastic cartilage which is replaced by hyaline cartilage at birth. The fetal skeleton is made up of the same proportion of cartilage as the adult skeleton.
