The Articular Capsule is a tought, flexible and fibrous capsule that covers the joint cavity. It is there to support and protect the joint.
For elephants? It's to cushion so that there is less strain on the bones, tendons and muscles. They're heavyweights.
Articular cartilage is hyaline cartilage that covers the surface of each bone in a joint. It allows smooth movement in that joint.
Because epiphyses are covered by articular cartilage
the inferior articular facet of the vertebra above it
The inferior articular process or facet of the vertebra above.
Facet has a small, nearly flat articular surface
fibrocartilage
The articular capsules are found in joints. They contain liquid which lubricates the joints (synovial fluid).

The Tibia serves as an articular surface for lateral condyle of the femur
To cusion the bones from rubbing and smacking on each other. It also allows gliding motions.The main function of the articular cartilage is to provide a smooth surface where the bones connect and touch. It also lubricates that area and makes sure there is low friction.
your joint is the function of your kneecap.The knee cap (also known as patella) is used to cover and protect the anterior articular surface of the knee joint.
Articular cartilage or Hyaline cartilage is connective tissue made up of strong collagen fibres. It provides a protection over the ends of bone and reduces friction where the bone forms an articulation (joint), hence the name articular. It also acts as a shock absorber.
Articular Cartilage
Peri-articular refers to the area around the joint. Articular would be referring to the actual joint.
Anything that relates to the joints is articular.
The function of synovial fluid is to reduce friction between the articular cartilage of synovial joints during movement. Synovial fluid has an egg yolk-like consistency.
