    bring in nutrients. 2. Describe in proper order the events of endochondral ossification. First hyaline cartilage is used as the model for bone construction‚ then a bone collar is formed around the cartilage. Then the hyaline cartilage is deteriorated so the periosteal bud and spongy bone can begin to form in the interior. The medullary cavity is then formed‚ as well as a secondary ossification center. Finally when ossification is completed hyaline cartilage remains only in the ends (which promote

    Hemopoietic (red) bone marrow Which ossification method would form a femur? The femur is formed through the endochondral ossification process. This is where bone replaces the cartilage. There are six steps in this type of ossification and they are as follows: the development of the cartilage model‚ the growth of the cartilage model‚ the development of the primary ossification center‚ the development of the medullary cavity‚ the development of the secondary ossification center‚ and the formation or articular
