Objectives For both Bone & Cartilagesessions Describe the microscopic appearance of the different histological types of cartilage. Identify the cell types found in bone and describe the microscopic organisation of cortical and trabecular bone. Consolidate the information on bone development gained in lectures by observing the microscopic appearance of developing bones.

SLIDE 127 Early changes in the limb’s cartilage model, longitudinal section. Inspect this slide at low magnification and establish the position of individual developing cartilage models (elements or bones) of the limb. In addition confirm your view by successfully recognising the developing articular surfaces and joint spaces. These individual bones develop in a proximal-distal sequence (most mature is proximal). 1.0 mm
