Epiphyseal growth plates can be seen only in growing bones. Cell division from these plates lead to growth of bones. Once these plates are ossified, bone growth stops.
The epiphyseal plate is an area at the long end of the bone which contains growing bone. It is located between the epiphysis at the end of the bone and the diaphysis of another bone. This is only found in children and adolescents as it turns into the epiphyseal line in adults.
Osteogenic zones are primarily seen in the growth plates of long bones, also known as the epiphyseal plates. These zones of specialized cartilage allow for bone growth during development. The different zones within the growth plate are responsible for various stages of bone formation and resorption.
The epiphyseal plate is an area at the long end of the bone that contains growing bone. As people develop, the bone grows longer as a result of activity inside this area. These plates permit growth after birth, allowing the long bones of the body to extend and a person to grow as he or she reaches maturity. Once growth is completed and the person reaches full maturity and stature, the new bone slowly hardens and the plate turns into the epiphyseal line.The plates fuse over at a stable and predictable rate, so someone with experience can examine a bone and make an estimate of its age. After about age 25, when the epiphyseal lines are fully formed, it is much harder to figure the age.
: The epiphyseal line the part of the bone that replaces the epiphyseal growth plate in long bones once a person has reached their full adult height. An epiphyseal line is visible on a standard x-ray. It looks like a thin dark streak that stretches horizontally across the rounded ends of the bone.
Bone growth would be stunted due to the damage done to the epiphyseal plate. The degree of which growth would be affected depends on the severity of the injury.
epiphyseal plates
Growth of length in a long bone occurs at the epiphyseal plate.
still growing
It is true that bone growth ceases as a person reaches physical maturity. This is when the epiphyseal plates are replaced by the epiphyseal lines.
once you are done growing, your epiphyseal plates (growth plates) which are cartilage, become ossified and turn to bone. If you still have the cartilage, you are not done growing. If it is all bone, you are.
Epiphyseal plates are the places in the bones where growth occurs. Bone cells and tissues form and grow here.
Probably a bone-growth disorder.
The presence of an epiphyseal plates indicates that the bone is still growing. When the bone has stopped growing, the epiphyseal plates will have fused together and are now called epiphyseal lines.An epiphyseal plate indicates that a person is still growing because its presence is only found in children. Adults have an epiphyseal line in its place. The plate indicates that mitosis is still proliferating the bone tissues.bone length is increasing

When the epiphyseal plate is replaced by bone, then growth at that bone stops.
