connective tissue
Bones and cartilage are found in most all vertebrates, with the exception of sharks and rays, which only have cartilage.
At the end of bones, you have cartilage separating bones from other bones. You have tendons attaching them to other bones or muscles.

Cartilage is flexible connective tissue that is often found in joints near bones. Elastic cartilage is more flexible than hyaline cartilage. It is found between bones in joints to stop them from rubbing of bone tissue and to allow movement without pain. It is white and is shiny and hard. Also it is 10x slipperier than ice.

Hyaline cartilage is a type of tissue found at the ends of some bones.It is an amorphous (chondroitin and glucosamine) matrix that surrounds cells that are called chondrocytes (within lacunae).It acts as a support and as a cushion. It has little blood supply and because of that it heals poorly.
Light micrograph of hyaline cartilage is a flexible connective tissue. This is including the joints between bones. To maintain this, one would need to take glucosamine chondroitin or something similar.
Cartilage is connective tissue. So it kind of connects the bones. its also helps in cushioning them
