Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chondrocytes are the cells responsible for the early stages of endochondral ossification, which is the process of bone formation from cartilage.

Answer: E
 The epiphyseal plate, also known as the growth plate, is the area where endochondral ossification occurs in bones that grow in length.

(Note: A is incorrect because it refers to a different type of bone formation that does not involve cartilage, B is incorrect because it refers to the process of adding layers to the outer surface of bones, and C is incorrect because it refers to a structure that forms after the growth plate has ossified.)
