How do long bones grow?
A bone collar is formed around the hyaline cartilage model. The hyaline cartilage is then caviated within the cartilage model. Next, the periosteal bud is invaded with internal cavities and spongy bone is formed. This is followed by the formation of the medllary cavity as ossification continues. The epihyses are ossificated and when this process is completed, the hyaline cartilage remains only in the epiphyseal plates and articular cartilages.
