during endochondral ossification the body replaces which type of tissue with bone?
answers: a - e
a hyaline
b fibrocartilage

Endochondral ossification is a process where hyaline cartilage serves as a template. Osteoblasts gradually replace this hyaline cartilage with bone tissue. Fibrocartilage (B) is found in areas like intervertebral discs. Epithelium (C) is a covering tissue. Elastic cartilage (D) is in structures like the ear. Connective (E) is a broad category, but the specific tissue replaced in endochondral ossification is hyaline cartilage.
