The cartilage is found between all joints
Cartilage is contained in the human skeletal and muscular systems. The nose, ears, and many other organs also contain cartilage.
Degeneration of cartilage in joints primarily affects the musculoskeletal system, leading to conditions like osteoarthritis. Over time, this can impact other systems such as the nervous system due to pain and limited mobility, as well as potentially affecting the cardiovascular system if inactivity leads to poor circulation.

Cartilage tissue.
Children have more cartilage than adults because cartilage is a flexible connective tissue that allows for growth and development. During childhood, their bones are still maturing, and the presence of cartilage helps in the formation of bone structures and facilitates the growth of long bones. As children age, much of this cartilage is replaced by bone through a process called ossification, resulting in adults having a higher proportion of bone compared to cartilage. This transition is essential for achieving the strength and stability needed in fully developed skeletal systems.
The most prominent cartilage in the anterior larynx is the thyroid cartilage. The thyroid cartilage is a shield shaped structure made of hyaline cartilage.
