________ can result in disproportionate dwarfs, such as dachshunds or basset hounds
chondrodystrophy
chondrodystrophy causes abnormalities in _____ and _____ of the bones
- shape
- size
_______ is a degenerative process of cartilage with focal or multifocal failure/delay of endochondral ossification
osteochondrosis
__________ is described as a retention of growth cartilage due to failure to mineralize and replace by bone
osteochondrosis (OD)
one possible pathogenesis of osteochondrosis is __________________
the ischemic necrosis of the cartilage
what age group is osteochondrosis most prevalent in?

rickets/osteomalacia
__________: failure of mineralization in a growing skeleton
