Where are Chondrocyte cells found?
Only in cartilage.
How do long bones grow?
A bone collar is formed around the hyaline cartilage model. The hyaline cartilage is then caviated within the cartilage model. Next, the periosteal bud is invaded with internal cavities and spongy bone is formed. This is followed by the formation of the medllary cavity as ossification continues. The epihyses are ossificated and when this process is completed, the hyaline cartilage remains only in the epiphyseal plates and articular cartilages.
What are the main events of endochondral ossification?
Meschyme (embryonic connective tissue) develops into a body of hyaline cartilage, covered with fibrous perichondrium, in the location of a future bone. For time, the perichondrium produces chondrocytes and the cartilage model growth in thickness.
Do cartilage cells have a nucleus?
There is only one cartilage cell, a chondrocyte that does have a nucleus.
Do female sharks have claspers?
No, they are only found on male sharks."Claspers are rolls of cartilage that become stiffened with calcium in the adult. The presence or absence of these claspers make it very easy to differentiate males from females..."
Why are there no nerve endings in articular cartilage?
There are no nociceptive receptors within any of the types of cartilage, but only in adjoining/surrounding perichondrium where such exists.
What bone is found towards the ends of long bones?
Long bone: the ends are called the epiphysis, the shaft is called the diaphysis. There is articular cartilage on either ends. The long bones distally and proximally have red marrow. There is yellow marrow in the diaphysis. The yellow marrow is mostly fat. On the surface of the bone is a periosteum which covers the endosteum. The center is called the medullary cavity.The epiphysis is made of spongy cancellous bone covered by a thin layer of compact bone. It is connected to the bone shaft by the epiphyseal cartilage, or growth plate, which aids in the growth of bone length and is eventually replaced by bone.
Where are Chondrocyte cells found?
Only in cartilage.
What hard tissue is found in vertebrates?
Bones and cartilage are found in most all vertebrates, with the exception of sharks and rays, which only have cartilage.
Cells found only in cartilage include?
chrondocytes
What cells are found only in cartilage?
jail cells

Where in the body are chondrocytes located?
Chondrocytes or cartilage cells are the only cell in the cartilage matrix.

Does hyaline cartilage connect between bones and sutures?
Sutures are only found in the skull. Sutures are classified as a Fibrous joint - and permit no movement. Sutures are connected by fibro cartilage. Fibrous cartilage is made up of dense irregular connective tissue.
Do bronchioles have cartilage rings?
No, cartilage is only contained up until the bronchi. The bronchioles and onward do not contain any cartilage rings, only smooth muscle.
