What else can I help you with?
Can you see an epiphyseal plate on a open dried femur bone?
Not if it is a femur from a skeletally mature individual. The epiphyseal plate of the femur closes at around age 17 or 18. After this age, you would not see the epiphyseal plate, but you should be able to see the physis (or physeal) scar. This is the point at which the epiphysis and metaphysis have fused.
The cartilage that is located at the end of long bones that closes when growth ceases is called the plate?
The cartilage at the end of long bones that closes when growth stops is known as the growth plate or epiphyseal plate. It is responsible for longitudinal bone growth during childhood and adolescence by ossifying to form solid bone.
Difference between epiphyseal plate and epiphyseal line?
Cartilage plate that servs as a growth area along the bone lenghing, it allows the dialysis of the bone to increase in length until early adulthood. When growth stops the epiphyseal plate is replaced with bone, then becoming the epiphseal line.
What happens if the epiphyseal plate of long bones in children closes too early?
If this happens, then the growth of the bones will stop lengthwise. So the height of the boy will not increase further. The breadth of the bone can still increase. You have two such plates in long bone. Both needs to be closed in order to stop the growth length wise.
What structure would be present instead of a epiphyseal line?
epiphyseal plate
Another name for a growth plate is?
Epiphyseal plate
Where does bone growth occur in children occur?
epiphyseal plates
What is the region of longitudinal growth in a child?
The region of longitudinal growth in a child is the epiphyseal plate, commonly known as the growth plate. This area is located at the ends of long bones and is responsible for bone lengthening during childhood and adolescence by the process of endochondral ossification. Once growth is complete, the growth plate closes and becomes a bony structure known as the epiphyseal line.

What is epiphyseal plates composed of?
