    cortical bone tissue and "densen" bone tissue
  4. disphysis

  5. Endochondral ossification
    (intracartilaginous) bone tissue formation that involves an initial hyaline cartilage model. Multi-step process involving mineralization and then resorption of cartilage before bone tissue is formed.
  6. Epiphyseal cartilage
    a hyaline cartilage "growth plate" in an immature bone.
  7. Epiphysis
    either end of long bone
  8. Intramembranous ossification
    direct osteogenesis occurring within a thin sheet of connective t.p.  Helps bones grow in diameter
  9. metaphysis
    the portion of developing diaphysis that lies next to an epiphyseal cartilage. very high metabolic activity
  10. Osteogenesis
    the formation of bone tissue by osteoblasts
  11. what is included in pectoral girdle
    left and right clavicles and scapulae, and sternum
  12. what is included in pelvic girdle
    3 bones: left and right ossa coxae, and the sacral bone
