Which bones form via intramembranous ossification?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process of bone formation is called osteogenesis or ossification. There are two types of ossification:
Intramembranous ossification: In this process, bone is formed in sheet-like layers that resemble a membrane. This is how the flat bones of the skull, mandible (jaw), and clavicles (collarbone) are formed.
Endochondral ossification: In this process, cartilage forms first and then is replaced by bone. This process forms most bones in the body.
The ulna, radius (forearm bones), and carpals (wrist) are formed via endochondral ossification.
The manubrium and xyphoid process are structures of the sternum and are also formed via endochondral ossification.
The malleus, incus, and stapes are bones in the middle of the ear and are also formed through endochondral ossification.
