Skeletogenesis

Last revised by Henry Knipe on 5 Jun 2019

Skeletogenesis begins with the migration of multipotent mesenchymal cells, derived from ectoderm and mesoderm, to the locations of the future bones.

The mesenchymal cells then complete bone formation and generation through either endochondral ossification or intramembranous ossification.
