- trabeculated: honey combed

- center: medullary cavity
- top: porous, trabeculated, end of long bone





- osteoclast slave to osteoblast






- 2 ossifications grow towards each other and trap epiphyseal plate

- layer of cartilage trapped = growth plate

- chondrocytes grow toward epiphysis
- osteoblast grow towards diaphysis

- woven bone remodeled by osteoblast




- Hunter's and Hurler's cannot metabolize mucopolyssachrides

- all these go up in increased activity


- acidosis bad for bone formation
- chronic acidosis: bone break down
