These photos show a longitudinal section of the head of the tibia bone (tibia). The white border just above the arrows is the articular cartilage. The gray layer underneath is the growth plate (where bone formation takes place). If bone formation is disturbed, this layer will become thicker. Below this layer are the bone bars which mark the start of the actual bone.
