Solution

The correct option is A Endochondrial bone
A vertebrate bone which directly develops from mesenchyme is called endochondral bone. Mesenchyme is a type of tissue which is made up of loose cells embedded in the extracellular matrix. It gives rise to connective tissue like bone, cartilage, etc. The process by which mesenchyme develops directly into bone is called as Endochondral ossification.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Endochondral bone.'
