Respuesta :
Away from the medullary cavity of the diaphysis of a long bone is the zone of Resting cartilage.
What is epiphyseal plate?
The growth plate, also known as the epiphyseal plate is a thin layer of cartilage that lies between the epiphyses and metaphysis, and is where the growth of long bones takes place.
Zone of Resting Cartilage: This is the area where the hyaline cartilage remains unchanged
4zones of epiphyseal plate:
Proliferation Zone. Zone 1. Cartilage cells undergo mitosis.
Hypertrophic Zone. Zone 2. Older cartilage cells enlarge.
Calcification Zone. Zone 3. Matrix becomes calcified; cartilage cells die; matrix begins deteriorating.
Ossification Zone. Zone 4. New bone formation is occurring.
Chondrocytes in the resting zone are irregularly scattered in a bed of cartilage matrix, whereas chondrocytes in the proliferative and hypertrophic zones are arranged in columns parallel to the long axis of the bone
