The correct sequence for bone repair starts with hematoma formation (blood clotting at the fracture site), followed by callus formation (fibrocartilaginous callus formation), then callus ossification (the callus is replaced by bone), and finally, remodeling of bone (the bone is reshaped to its original form).
