lower end of femur, upper end of tibia, calcaneus, talus and cuboid have ossified by birth.Among them the lower end of femur, calcaneus and talus are more persistent.

Yes, the spaces between skull bones that have not ossified are called fontanelles in infants and young children. Sutures refer to the fibrous joints that connect the bones in the adult skull.
The human fetus has 275 bones, many more than the 206 bones found in the adult skeleton. This is because many of the bones described as single bones in the adult have not yet fully ossified and fused in the fetus. The skull's sutures do not close until after the infant ages. Adult sutures are fully closed.
Yes, the frontal and mandibular bones are paired in the fetus and fuse after birth. The frontal bone forms the forehead and part of the skull, while the mandibular bone forms the lower jaw. During fetal development, these bones start as separate structures and gradually fuse together after birth to form a single bone.
yes, they are an ossified tissue
The term for the spaces between developing skull bones that have not ossified is fontanelles. These soft spots allow for flexibility during childbirth and early growth of the skull bones.
In fetal skeletons, carpals and tarsals are mostly cartilaginous and not fully developed. In adults, these bones are ossified and have distinct shapes and articulations to support weight-bearing and fine movements. The process of ossification continues after birth, leading to the formation of mature carpals and tarsals.
An average fetus has around 270 bones. However, some of these bones will eventually fuse together as the fetus grows, resulting in the adult human skeleton containing 206 bones.
Area will become ossified as the fetus ages, completing the process by the age 20-22 months
Red bone marrow makes red blood cells and this is found in all infant and children's bones. In adults most of the red marrow has been replaced with yellow marrow which is fat tissue. Bones that are ossified have fully formed and are adult bones.
Fetal vertebrae are smaller in size and appear more cartilaginous compared to adult vertebrae. Fetal vertebrae also have different proportions and shapes which change as they mature into adult vertebrae, with the presence of ossification centers being a key difference.
There are no soft bones, just incompletely ossified joints such as the fontanels of the skull and the growth plates of the long bones.
They have not been completely ossified, which the process by which they turn from cartilage to bone.
