Answer:

The correct answer is: c) 3, 2, 5, 1, 4.

Endochondral ossification is the process in which bone tissue is formed from a cartilage model, unlike intramembranous ossification in which bone cells originate from mesenchymal stem cells. Endochondral ossification is key to: 1) the rudimentary formation of long bones, 2) the growth in lenght of long bones, and 3) the reparation if bone tissue when the bone is fractured.
