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.
The dividing cartilage cells are located in the zone of proliferation within the epiphyseal plate. This zone is where chondrocytes actively divide and contribute to bone growth.
Cartilage is the smooth tissue that acts as a buffer between bones, providing cushioning and reducing friction during movement. It helps to absorb shock and distribute weight evenly across the joints.
Hyaline cartilage actually it is articular cartilage that lines the end of long bones. depending on the age of the body and whether it is a fetus or child/adult. hyaline cartilage disappears around the 6th week old fetal development and is replaces with osseous tussue. there is a region, farther from the marrow cavity, that consists of typical hyaline cartilage that shows no sign of transformation into bone in the early years of growth. it is in the "zone of reserve cartilage"
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.
No, spongy bone is not filled with cartilage. Spongy bone is a type of bone tissue that consists of trabeculae which form a lattice-like structure filled with bone marrow. Cartilage is a different type of connective tissue that is found at the ends of bones, in the joints, and within the nose and ears.
The dividing cartilage cells are located in the zone of proliferation within the epiphyseal plate. This zone is where chondrocytes actively divide and contribute to bone growth.
In the epiphysis, or end of the bone, is spongy bone which contains red bone marrow. On the external part of the epiphysis is articular or hyaline cartilage.

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.
