this disease occurs due to the thinning of cartilage between the bones and the cartilage starts to proliferate and the tissue can't hold itself together osteoarthritis
this is an autoimmune disease of joints which tends to be bilateral. extra cells go to the joint capsule and it becomes thicker. the joint surfaces then start to rub together. Rheumatoid Arthritis
if cartilage is avascular, where do the nutrients come from? the perichondrium
Elastic cartilage is located here Eustachian tube, External ear, and Epiglottis

this type of growth occurs when mesenchyme turns directly to bone and occurs mostly in the skull intramembranous ossification
this type of growth occurs when mesenchyme first turns to cartilage, and then to bone endochondral ossification
list the five zones of the growth plate for endochondral ossification reserve cartilage, proliferation, hypertrophy, calcified cartilage, resorption/osteogenesis.
