When chondrocytes divide and form new matrix it leads to an expansion of the cartilage tissue from within This process is called?
interstitial growth
How is the epiphysis forced farther from the shaft during the growth of a long bone?
The chondrocytes of the epiphyseal cartilage enlarge and divide, which increases the thickness of the cartilage. On the shaft side, the chondrocytes become ossified, and "chase" the expanding epiphyseal cartilage away from the shaft.
The thin band of cartilage where bone growth occurs is called the?
The thin band of cartilage where bone growth occurs is called the epiphysis plate. The plate's chondrocytes are under constant division by mitosis.
The appearance of this structure signals the end of bone growth?
the appearance if this structure signals the end of the bone growth
What is flocculent growth?
Having a fluffy or woolly appearance.

What best describes the interstitial growth of cartilage?
Chondrocytes in the lacunae divide and secrete matrix, allowing the cartilage to grow from within.

How does the growth plate work?
The growth plate works by the chondrocytes being under constant division by mitosis. This is what makes the bones grow and it will go away completely once that person is done growing.
The appearance of this structure signals the end of bone growth?
the appearance if this structure signals the end of the bone growth
What is flocculent growth?
Having a fluffy or woolly appearance.
What is allometric growth of animal?
This is a relationship in which there is a linear relationship in 2 characters AFTER a log transformation.
Why epiphyseal plates remain thin while they grow?
Chondrocytes divide rapidly and form columns of stacked cells at the epiphyseal cartilage of short and long bones. During the growth towards the ends of bones, the chondrocytes that were originally dividing in closest proximity to the center of the bone (still within the epiphyseal cartilage), die and become resorbed matrix. This matrix soon becomes calcified. Because the proliferation and destruction of chondrocytes occur at the same rate, the epiphyseal plate does not change thickness. It does, however, grow away from the middle of the bone.
How do growth and development differ?
Growth is the process of becoming larger. Development is the process of becoming more complex.
What is a transformation-poem?
A transformation poem is a type of poem that explores change, growth, or evolution, either in the narrator or in the subject matter of the poem. These poems often use vivid imagery and symbolism to depict a process of personal, emotional, or physical transformation.
What are the symbols in the ugly duckling?
Some of the symbols in "The Ugly Duckling" include the duckling's transformation symbolizing growth and self-discovery, the swans representing beauty and acceptance, and the theme of inner beauty versus outward appearance. These symbols help convey messages about identity, belonging, and acceptance.
