Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Intramembranous ossification is the process of bone formation directly from mesenchymal cells, without the intermediate step of cartilage formation. This process occurs primarily in flat bones of the skull, mandible, and clavicle. Long bones, arm and leg bones, and secondary bone are formed through endochondral ossification, which involves the formation of a cartilage template that is gradually replaced by bone.
