No, INTRAMEMBRANOUS OSSIFICATION, is developed from a fibrous membrane. Essentially all bones below the base of the skull (except the clavicles) are formed from endochondral ossification.
Endochondral ossification uses hyaline cartilage "bones" as a pattern for forming true bones.
Endochondral and intramembranous ossification are two processes of bone formation. Endochondral ossification involves the replacement of hyaline cartilage with bone, primarily occurring in long bones and during fetal development. In contrast, intramembranous ossification occurs directly within a fibrous connective tissue membrane, leading to the formation of flat bones like the skull and clavicle. Both processes are essential for skeletal development and growth.
Intramembranous ossification involves the direct formation of bone from mesenchymal tissue, primarily occurring in flat bones like the skull and clavicles. In contrast, endochondral (or intracartilaginous) ossification involves the replacement of a cartilage model with bone, which is typical in the development of long bones. The key difference lies in the initial tissue from which bone develops: intramembranous ossification starts from fibrous membrane, while endochondral ossification begins with cartilage.
Intramembranous ossification begins when osteoblasts differentiate within a mesenchymal or fibrous connective tissue.

Some membranes that lack an epithelial layer include synovial membranes, meninges, and the endothelium that lines blood vessels. These membranes are made up of connective tissue rather than epithelial cells.
The synovial membrane consists of fibrous connective tissue overlying loose connective tissue. It lines joint cavities and produces synovial fluid to lubricate and cushion the joint surfaces.
The process of making bone is called ossification or osteogenesis. This process involves the transformation of cartilage or fibrous tissue into bone tissue, primarily through the activity of cells called osteoblasts, which synthesize bone matrix and promote mineralization. Ossification occurs in two main ways: intramembranous ossification, which forms flat bones like the skull, and endochondral ossification, which forms long bones like those in the arms and legs.
Cranial bones develop within fibrous membranes. Cranial bone tissues are adapted to support weight and withstand the tension and stress of the skull.
A fibrous joint is a structural classification where bones are joined by fibrous connective tissue. Examples of fibrous joints include sutures in the skull and syndesmoses in the distal tibiofibular joint.
Ligaments are the fibrous connective tissue that holds bones in a joint together.
