What is intramembranous ossification and endochondral ossification?
Two ways in which bones are developed.
Describe the effects of sunlight, nutrition, hormonal secretions, and exercise on bone development and growth.
Vitamin D (sunlight) is necessary for proper absorption of calcium in the small intestine. In the absence of this vitamin, calcium is poorly absorbed, and the inorganic salt portion of bone matrix lacks calcium, softening and thereby deforming bones. Growth hormone secreted by the pituitary gland stimulates division of the cartilage cells in the epiphyseal plates. Sex hormones stimulate ossification of the epiphyseal plates. Physical exercise pulling on muscular attachments to bones stresses the bones, stimulating the bone tissue to thicken and strengthen.

What factors affect bone development, growth and repair?
Vitamin D is necessary for proper absorption of calcium in the small intestine. In the absence of this vitamin, calcium is poorly absorbed, and the inorganic salt portion of bone matrix lacks calcium, softening and thereby deforming bones.
