the growth plate consists of three zones: proliferative, hypertrophic, and resting. The proliferative zone is where those cartilage cells reproduce, or divide. The hypertrophic zone is where the cells grow larger, drawing attention from nearby bone cells, which then begin the ossification process. The resting zone has been a bit of a mystery, but a new study suggests researchers may have found skeletal stem cells living there.
