  2. Endochondral ossification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endochondral_ossification

    A schematic for long bone endochondral ossification. In developing bones, ossification commences within the primary ossification center located in the center of the diaphysis (bone shaft), [5] where the following changes occur: The perichondrium surrounding the cartilage model transforms into the periosteum. During this transformation, special ...

  3. Skull - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skull

    The skull is a complex structure; its bones are formed both by intramembranous and endochondral ossification. The skull roof bones, comprising the bones of the facial skeleton and the sides and roof of the neurocranium, are dermal bones formed by intramembranous ossification, though the temporal bones are formed by endochondral ossification.

  4. Ossification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ossification

    Diagram showing stages of endochondral ossification. Endochondral ossification is the formation of long bones and other bones. This requires a hyaline cartilage precursor. There are two centers of ossification for endochondral ossification. The primary center. In long bones, bone tissue first appears in the diaphysis (middle of shaft).

  5. Rib - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rib

    The ribs begin as cartilage that later ossifies – a process called endochondral ossification. Primary ossification centers are located near the angle of each rib, and ossification continues in the direction away from the head and neck. During adolescence secondary ossification centers are formed in the tubercles and heads of the ribs. [8]

  6. Ossification center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ossification_center

    An ossification center is a point where ossification of the hyaline cartilage begins. The first step in ossification is that the chondrocytes at this point become hypertrophic and arrange themselves in rows. [1] The matrix in which they are imbedded increases in quantity, so that the cells become further separated from each other.

  7. Skeletal animation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_animation

    Skeletal animation or rigging is a technique in computer animation in which a character (or other articulated object) is represented in two parts: a polygonal or parametric mesh representation of the surface of the object, and a hierarchical set of interconnected parts (called joints or bones, and collectively forming the skeleton), a virtual ...

  8. Amazon MGM Studios posted the same photo on Instagram, and while Schwarzenegger certainly looks like Santa with his full white beard, it’s not clear if he will play him.

  9. Osteoblast - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteoblast

    Endochondral ossification is the process of forming bone from cartilage and this is the usual method. This form of bone development is the more complex form: it follows the formation of a first skeleton of cartilage made by chondrocytes, which is then removed and replaced by bone, made by osteoblasts. Intramembranous ossification is the direct ...
