This figure illustrates bone growth in length at the epiphyseal plate. Zone "B" represents

A) bone tissue of the diaphysis.
B) zone of calcification.
C) zone of hypertrophy.
D) zone of proliferation.
E) zone of resting cartilage.

Epiphyseal Plate

A growth plate located at the ends of long bones where new bone tissue is generated during growth.

Zone of Proliferation

Refers to a region in a growth plate of bones where cartilage cells are rapidly dividing and contributing to bone lengthening.

Zone of Calcification

A region in bone where cartilage is being replaced by bone tissue during the growth process.
