Q

In ____ bone growth, Mesenchymal cells make the general outline of the final bone
shape. The cells differentiate into cartilage cells
(chondroblasts), which increase in size, secrete collagen and mineralize it with matrix vesicles. The newly formed
chondrocytes eventually die. Vascular tissue from the
surrounding perichondrium invades the cartilage, allowing chondrocytes and mesenchymal cells to enter the area. The chondrocytes eat away the cartilage, and newly differentiated osteoblasts deposit osteoid onto the cartilage. The osteoid is
mineralized by osteocytes, and bone is made.
