After spongy bone is formed in the diaphysis, osteoclasts break down the newly formed bone to open up the medullary cavity. The cartilage in the epiphyses continues to grow so the developing bone increases in length. Later, usually after birth, secondary ossification centers form in the epiphyses.
It is also found in the epiphyseal plate between the end of the bone (epiphysis) and the long, cylindrical body of the bone (diaphysis.) This structure allows for bone growth. As the individual matures and bone growth ceases, this structure becomes replaced with bone and becomes the epiphyseal line.2.
