Textbook Question
Chapter 6, Problem 22RQ
In endochondral ossification, what happens to the chondrocytes?
- They develop into osteocytes.
- They die in the calcified matrix that surrounds them and form the medullary cavity.
- They grow and form the periosteum.
- They group together to form the primary ossification center.

What is the earliest event (from the ones listed) in endochondral ossification?
Group of answer choices
Appearance of the epiphyseal plate
Ossification of proximal epiphysis
Death of cartilage cells
Osteoblasts transported into diaphysis by blood vessels
Formation of secondary ossification centers
A race between two runners is often used as an analogy to describe the mechanism of endochondral ossification. Review endochondral ossification. In endochondral ossification, who are the two runners? Did each runner begin the race at the same time? Who is in the lead? How does the race end?
I have some ideas but cannot decide. I was first thinking condrocytes and osteoblasts with osteoblasts finishing first with the compact bone, but then I was thinking of blasts and clasts as one builds and one removes. Also, I thought, well maybe, cartilage and osteoblasts.
Which type of ossification process begins with a hyaline cartilage model that has two ossification centers called the primary and secondary ossification center. In this process the cartilage model is replaced with bone except at the articular cartilages and the epiphyseal plates. An example of a bone that develops by this process is the humerus.
growth of the articular cartilage
growth from a hyaline cartilage model
intramembranous ossification
endochondral ossification
epiphyseal growth
