False. You have it backwards.
Bone is the hard structure that give your body form, posture, and strength. They are stiff and cannot bend. They are hard.
Cartilage is the soft, flexible, yet tough tissue found in the tops of your ears, and the tip of your nose.
When you are an infant, many bones are partly cartilage, especially the skull. When you start growing, these bones get bigger and harden into actual bones.
False
A connective tissue that is more flexible than bone that but that functions within the skeletal system is called cartilage. Cartilage can be found at the tip of your nose, or in your outer ear.
Bones are of course harder
Cartilage, as a rule, is the slowest healing tissue in the human body. The reason for this is the virtual absence of blood flow in this tissue. Most of the nutrition for cartilage comes from synovial fluid, the lubricating fluid in most of our joints. There are other types of cartilage in the body such as hyaline cartilage, forming the connection in the front of the rib cage. This type is also considered avascular, meaning without blood supply. Bones on the other hand heal much faster than most tissues because of their rich supply of blood. The blood carries the nessecary building blocks required in the healing process.
Oh gosh no. A child has much more cartilage because a fetus has no bone this is to fit through the birth canal. It takes a child many years for their cartilage to become bone. This is why children have less broken bones than adults. They have not fully converged from cartilage to bone
YesThat is true.
Because bone is much harder than cartilage
Cartilage is a far more primitive tissue than bone
No. It does not have the amount of calcium as bone.
Teeth are teeth, neither cartilage or bone. But more similar to bone than cartilage.
The opposite of Cartilage Are Ligaments because the cartilage is more flexible than bone.
No, it is not. Bone is strong but it doesn't bend easily. Cartilage is more flexible.
A connective tissue that is more flexible than bone that but that functions within the skeletal system is called cartilage. Cartilage can be found at the tip of your nose, or in your outer ear.
Chondrichthyes is the Class of fish that has Cartilage Rather than bone.
Bone is far more vascular than cartilage, which means the bone receives nutrients/oxygen/other good stuff more and easier than cartilage. Cartilage has almost no blood supply, which makes healing difficult. Hope that helps..
Cartilage could be used to hold our selves together but cartilage is actually unformed bone and Cartilage also is very unstable if you bones so to speak were made of cartilage we would highly unstable and unable to walk like a baby almost
Bones are of course harder
Not really. The nails are more of a compact layered skin structure. Cartilage is more for cushioning and lubrication between bones. Some areas do have a rigid structure of cartilage, but it's softer than nail tissue.
