The Tough connective tissue membrane that covers most parts of all bones?

The tough connective tissue membrane that covers most parts of all bones is called the periosteum. It provides nourishment to the bone and contains nerves and blood vessels that support bone health and repair. The periosteum also plays a role in bone growth and development.


What bone regions are united by fibrous connective tissue?

There is no fibrous connective tissue in bone, but there is dense irregular tissue known as periosteum that covers bones (all except the articulating surfaces) and provides attachment sites for tendons and ligaments.


The movements available at fibrous fixed joints?

Fibrous fixed joints, also known as synarthroses, are immovable joints where bones are connected by dense fibrous connective tissue. As a result, there is no movement available at these joints except for a minimal amount of flexibility to absorb shock. This type of joint provides stability and strength to the body, such as in the sutures of the skull.

Does endochondral ossification begins on fibrous connective tissue membranes?

No, INTRAMEMBRANOUS OSSIFICATION, is developed from a fibrous membrane. Essentially all bones below the base of the skull (except the clavicles) are formed from endochondral ossification. Endochondral ossification uses hyaline cartilage "bones" as a pattern for forming true bones.
