Explanation:

Fibrocartilage is a type of cartilage, not a type of bone - formation process. Intramembranous ossification forms flat bones like skull - bones. Endochondral ossification is the process by which most of the bones of the body, including long bones, are formed. It involves the replacement of a cartilage model with bone tissue.

Answer:

B. endochondral
