High-Yield Explanation
Epiphysio-diaphyseal joint is a primary cartilaginous joint – synchondrosis. It is found in the growing bone, where the growth plate (hyaline cartilage) connects the epiphysis with the diaphysis, creating a hyaline cartilaginous joint. At this site the fate of synchondrosis is synostosis (bony fusion) after the growth plate gets removed and replaced by the bone.
