Q

In appositional growth?

A

Fibroblasts in perichobdrium differentiate into chondrobalsts and synthesize new matrix. Growth is from outside cartilage mass

Q

In interstitial growth?

A

Pre existing chondrocytes mitotically divide to synthesize new matrix from within cartilage mass. Occurs at epiphyses and in articular cartilages

Osteogenic cells?

A

Stem cell in inner layer if periosteum that give rise to osteoblasts

20
