elastic cartilage

bone forming cells

Answer 1

Solution:

Definition	Tissue/cells
A. cartilage producing cells	chondrocytes
B. the most abundant skeletal cartilage	hyaline cartilage
C. contain stretch elastic fibers and can withstand repeated bending	elastic cartilage
D. Blastocytes	Bone forming cells
E. Osteoclasts	Breaks down bone
F: The cells responsible for the early stages of Endochondral ossification.	chondrocytes
G: Area where bone longitudinal growth takes place	Epiphyseal plate

Explanation :

A:Chondrocytes are the cells which are involved in the production of cartilage .

B:Hyaline is the most abundant Skeletal cartilage present in the human body

C:Elastic cartilage are flexible in nature. They contain the elastic fibers and and withstand extensive bending and stretching and provide elasticity to bone.

D: Osteoblasts/Blastocytes are the bone forming cells .They secrete the osteoid and involved in bone formation and modeling.

E:Osteoclasts are bone resorption cells ,which absorb the bone tissue and degrade the bone and help in remodeling of bone during healing of bone.

F: Chondrocytes are the cells that are responsible for early stages of endochondral ossification.They are involved in the secretion of matrix component for ossification of bone.

G: Epiphyseal plate is the region in Bone where the longitudinal growth of bone takes place and help in elongating the length of bone .It is the layer of hyaline cartilage present between spongy bone and compact bone.
