The appearance of this structure signals the end of bone growth?
The appearance of the growth plate closure, also known as the epiphyseal line, signals the end of bone growth in long bones. This happens when the cartilage in the growth plate is replaced by bone, indicating that growth has ceased in that particular bone.
What is bone growth stimulation?

Does this hormone promote bone growth or bone thinning?
No
The area of a long bone where growth in bone length occurs is the?
The growth in bone length of a long bone occurs at the epiphyseal plate, also known as the growth plate. This area is found at the ends of long bones and is responsible for new bone formation during childhood and adolescence, ultimately determining the final length of the bone.
Area where bone growth takes place?
The area where bone growth takes place is called the growth plate, also known as the epiphyseal plate. It is a layer of cartilage located near the ends of long bones in children and adolescents. This cartilage continuously grows and is eventually replaced by bone tissue as the bone matures.
