Mesenchyme differentiation during chondrogenesis
In the section "Cartilage in fetal development" it says: "Chondrification (also known as chondrogenesis) is the process by which cartilage is formed from condensed mesenchyme tissue,[2] which differentiates into chondrocytes and begins secreting the molecules that form the extracellular matrix." I may be wrong, but I think mesenchyme tissue differentiates into chondroblasts, rather then chondrocytes. Chondroblasts are the precursos of chondrocytes. I am hesitant about changing it myself, since I am a bit wiki clumsy, but I thought I'd at least mention it in the Talk section.
