Hyaline cartilage
Multipotential cells in the fibrous layer of the perichondrium differentiate into chondroblasts in the chondrogenic layer. When a chondroblast has surrounded itself with cartilage, it is then called a chondrocyte. A cluster of chondrocytes cloned from a single chondrocyte is an isogenous group, representing interstitial growth of this tissue. Cartilage is avascular and thus chondrocytes are nourished by diffusion. 400x
