Histology Lab
Storyboard Text
- Hey, Michal! We have a quiz in General Histology today. Did you study already?
- Hello, Vernice! Yes, I did. You can ask me questions about it to test if I really learned something.
- Sure! Let's begin.
- What is the development of the osseous tissue within the mesenchymal tissue without prior cartilage formation?
- Is it Intramembranous Ossification?
- Yes, you are right! How about this, what is the process by which growing cartilage is systematically replaced by bone to form the growing skeleton?
- Endochondral Ossification!
- Right! Can you differentiate Endochondral Ossification to Intramembranous Ossification?
- In Endochondral Ossification, a cartilage is formed first and the bone is laid down on it. It also proceeds through an intermediate cartilage. Lastly, it is important in the formation of long bones.
- On the other hand, in Intramembranous Ossification, the bone is directly formed on a mesenchyme. It also does not form any intermediate cartilage and it is important in the formation of flat bones.
- That's so impressive, Michal! I think you would do well in our quiz later. Oops, our professor is already here. Good luck to us, Michal!
- Thank you and I am wishing you luck as well, Vernice!
