|
What is the significance of the epiphyseal line? |
As long as a layer of cartilage called the epiphyseal plate remains between the epiphysis and diaphysis, growth continues. Growth ceases when all epiphyseal cartilage is transformed to bone. |
|
What is the process called where bones are formed from cartilage? |
ossification |
|
What are the parts of long bone? |
Articular cartilage, periosteum, endosteum, |
|

Where is long bone located and where does hematopoiesis take place? |

What are the joints in the bones in an adult skull called? |
Frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital, sphenoid, ethmoid, mandible, maxillary, zygomatic |
