Bone and Cartilage

A cartilage that provides support with flexibility and resilience

most abundant skeletal cartilage

found only 2 places: external ear & epiglottis

growth from the outside;due   to outward expansion from production   of cartilage matrix on outside of tissue

growth due to   expansion from within cartilage matrix   due to division of lacunae-bound   chondrocytes and secretion matrix.

growth that increases the bone width

growth that increases the bone length

bones of the upper and lower limbs   and girdles that attach them to axial skeleton

division of the skeletal system that includes skull, vertebral column, and rib cage

projections, depressions, and openings found on surface of bones
