Most bone ends are rounded.
The epiphysis is the rounded end of a long bone, at its joint with adjacent bone.
A rounded process that usually articulates with another bone is called a condyle. Condyles are rounded projections at the end of a bone that form joints with other bones, allowing for smooth and stable movement.
The rounded end of a bone is called an epiphysis. It is covered with a thin layer of cartilage that helps reduce friction and absorb shock during movement.
A condyle is a rounded prominence at the end of a bone, typically part of a joint. It helps facilitate smooth movement and stabilization of the joint during motion. Condyles are often found in areas such as the knee, elbow, and jaw.
The epiphysis is the rounded end of a long bone, and it contains spongy bone tissue that provides structural support and helps in shock absorption. The epiphysis also plays a role in bone growth and development by containing red bone marrow, which is responsible for producing blood cells.
