Cartilage formation
Chondrogenesis:
27
Osteogenesis
Two major methods of bone formation:
Intramembranous
Endochondral
28
* Bone is preformed in a cartilaginous model, after which the cartilage is destroyed by chondroblasts
(cartilage destroying cells)
Endochondral ossification
29
* Bone is formed in an environment of mesenchymal cells which differentiate into osteoblasts to osteocytes when entrapped by their own secretions
* Clavicle and bones of the skull (flat bones) are examples of bones formed
Intramembranous ossification
30

myotome
33
*Limb Development
A limb begins as ____.
limb field
34
*Limb Development
A _____ is produced by localized proliferation and condensation of mesenchyme, covered by ectoderm.
limb bud
35
*Limb Development
The distal end of the limb bud (____) is flattened like a paddle and ectoderm along its outer margin thickens to form the so-called _____ (AER).
footplate
apical ectodermal ridge
36
*Limb Development

Proximodistal order
37
*Limb Development
