What's the difference between hyaline and synchondrosis?

Hyaline


Definition:

Synchondrosis


Definition:

  • (n.) An immovable articulation in which the union is formed by cartilage.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The submental artery passed forwards along the inferior margin of the mandible, giving off the digastric and the mylohyoid branches, up to the intermandibular synchondrosis, where it anastomosed with the opposite fellow after giving off the genioglossal branch.

  • (4) Microradiographical and histological investigations showed that the cranial base lordosis was more pronounced in the MAM rats than in the controls, and that the width of the spheno-occipital synchondrosis was reduced mainly due to reduction in the central zone.
  • (5) The immunohistochemical localization of types I and II collagen was examined in the following 4 cartilaginous tissues of the rat craniofacial region: the nasal septal cartilage and the spheno-occipital synchondrosis (primary cartilages), and the mandibular condylar cartilage and the cartilage at the intermaxillary suture (secondary cartilages).
