The cartilage cells at the epiphyseal side are continuing to grow and divide mitotiacally and the diaphyseal side are aging and dying and the osteoblast move in to form bone.
So they are growing on the ends side and in the middle side of the Epiphyseal line they are dying and form bone.

∙ 9y agoThe epiphyseal plate is the area of the long bone that contains the growth plate. As the person matures there is no longer need for growth so the epiphyseal line develops which where the bone can no longer grow.

What happens in diaphyseal face?
Diaphyseal face, is the opposite of the Epiphyseal face and it is when the bones stops growing, cells starts to mature and degenerate.
What happens when the epiphyseal plate is replaced by bone?
When the epiphyseal plate is replaced by bone, then growth at that bone stops.
What happens when children have thick epiphyseal plates?
The epiphyseal plates are also known as the growth plates. When these are thick, especially due to injury, they can eventually cause a deformity in the child's growth and development.
What happens to bone growth if the epiphyseal plate is damaged?
Bone growth would be stunted due to the damage done to the epiphyseal plate. The degree of which growth would be affected depends on the severity of the injury.
This is a layer of hyaline cartilage that allows the diaphysis to grow in length?
Epiphyseal plate
What structure would be present instead of a epiphyseal line?
epiphyseal plate
Where does bone growth occur in children occur?
epiphyseal plates
Where does bone growth occur in the long bones?
Growth of length in a long bone occurs at the epiphyseal plate.
What is epiphyseal plates composed of?
The epiphyseal plate is composed of cartilage. As the child grows, the cartilage hardens into bone. The epiphyseal plate is located at the ends of the long skeletal bones.
What structure allows bones to grow in thickness?
Bones grow in length by endochondral ossification. It begins with cartilage that acts like a model of the bone that will grow. The bone grows in length and diameter(appositional). the structure that allows this is the epiphyseal cartilage that seperates the epiphysis from the diaphysis. When the bone is fully grown this cartilage will become bone and simply the epiphyseal line.
How is bone marrow articular cartilage the epiphyseal line and epiphyseal plate related?
The epiphyseal plate is a section of hyaline cartilage that seperates the epiphysis from the diaphysis in long bones. The growth and ossification of the epiphyseal plate is responsible for the bone growing longer. Articulate cartilage is similar, however, it is found on the outside layer of the epiphysis. It grows and resorbs allowing for the remodelling of the bone. The epiphyseal line is the remains of the epiphyseal plate once it has stopped growing.
What marginal zone of the epiphyseal plate where in children and adolescents bone can be seen replacing the hyaline cartilage?
the epiphyseal line
