What hormone is the most important stimulus of epiphyseal plate activity?
The growth hormone is the most important stimulus of epiphyseal plate activity, as it is responsible for stimulating the growth of bones during childhood and adolescence. It acts on the epiphyseal plates to promote bone growth and elongation.
Will a deficiency of growth hormone cause a decrease proliferation of the epiphyseal plate cartilage?
growth hormone
What is the most important stimulus of epiphyseal plate activity during infancy and childhood?
growth hormone
What will a deficiency in growth hormone cause?
In bone formation, a deficiency of growth hormone will cause DECREASED PROLIFERATION OF THE EPIPHYSEAL PLATE CARTILAGE.
Another name for a growth plate is?
Epiphyseal plate
Which hormone is specifically responsible for terminating growth at the epiphyseal plate in both men and women as they end adolescence?
The hormone responsible for terminating growth at the epiphyseal plate in both men and women as they end adolescence is estrogen. Estrogen plays a key role in promoting the closure of the growth plates, leading to the cessation of longitudinal bone growth.
This is a layer of hyaline cartilage that allows the diaphysis to grow in length?
The layer you are referring to is the epiphyseal plate, also known as the growth plate. It is found at the ends of long bones in children and adolescents, allowing the bone to lengthen as the cartilage cells multiply and are replaced by new bone tissue. Once growth is complete, the epiphyseal plate ossifies and becomes the epiphyseal line.
What structure would be present instead of a epiphyseal line?
epiphyseal plate
What is epiphyseal plates composed of?
The epiphyseal plate is composed of cartilage. As the child grows, the cartilage hardens into bone. The epiphyseal plate is located at the ends of the long skeletal bones.
What is the scientific name for growth plate?
Epiphyseal plate
The growth plate is also known as the what?
The epiphyseal plate.
Is a bone fractured if the x ray shows a black area in the region of the epiphyseal plate?
If an x-ray shows a black area in the region of the epiphyseal plate, it means that the epiphyseal plate has not completely ossified. The bone is not fractured.
