Intramembranous ossification
There are two ways bones are formed, intramembranous ossification, and endochondral ossification. Intramembranous ossification is how the flat bones are formed, while the long bones are formed with endochondral ossification.
Intramembranous ossification begins when osteoblasts differentiate within a mesenchymal or fibrous connective tissue.
