Which is the last phase of endochondral ossification? A primary ossification center is formed. An epiphyseal cartilage separates the epiphysis from the diaphysis. Chondrocytes near the center of the shaft increase greatly in size. A secondary ossification center is formed.

An epiphyseal cartilage separates the epiphysis from the diaphysis
