Where is the azygous vein and where does it extend down from
In the thorax

Sternothyroid
What is the muscle infront of the sternothyroid and the thyrohyoid muscle
The sternohyroid muscle
What is the periosteum
The sheath around the bone
Would contain blood vessels that would allow nutrients to be carried through the bone
Would also have nutrient artery’s that would carry nutrients to the bone
What is the difference between the osteoblasts and chondrocytes in bone formation

Osteoblast would come from the bone marrow and can form the chondrocytes
