Where in the body would you find white fibrocartilage?
intervertebral disc. in the knee
Where are fibrocartilage found?
Fibrocartilage is an extra strong type of cartilage, it is made up of white fibrous tissue and cartilaginous fibres which are arranged in an orderly manner. It also contains an abundant supply of Type I Collagen. This combination of fibres gives fibrocartilage its strong, flexible and elastic properties.Because of its strength and durability, fibrocartilage is found in areas of the body which are subjected to the most strain and impact such as the spine, knees and pelvis, where it provides support and strength and acts as a shock absorber.
The union of the manubrium and the body of the sternum is an important landmark of the chest and is callled?
The manubrium is united to the body of the sternum either by an amphiarthrodial joint-a piece of fibrocartilage connecting the segments-or by a diarthrodial joint, in which the articular surface of each bone is clothed with a lamina of cartilage.
What are the three kinds of skeletal cartilage?
Hyaline cartilage Elastic cartilage Fibrocartilage

Pads of are located between the vertebrae?
A disc of cartilage is found between each of the vertebrae.
Where in the body would you find white fibrocartilage?

What kind of connective tissue comprises the intervertebral discs between vertebrae?
Fibrocartilage (i.e Fibroelastic cartilage)
What body structures are composed of fibrocartilage?
Fibrocartilage makes up most of the menisci of the knee, the pubic joint, and the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) of the jaw.

Which body tissue makes up the intervertebral discs?
firbrocartilage makes up the intevertebral discs.
Invertebral disc are made of what tissue?
You have outer annulus fibrosus. Which is made of fibrous tissue. Inside the annulus fibrosus, you have jelly like nucleus pulposus.
What are the three kinds of skeletal cartilage?
Hyaline cartilage Elastic cartilage Fibrocartilage
What type of cartilage makes up the intervertebral disks?
fibrocartilage
What is fibrocartilage composed of?
Fibrocartilage is compose of cartilage( which is a connective tissue composed of cells called chondrocytes. This chondrocytes is highly rich in collagen and other proteins. ) Fibrocartilage is however located in the intervertebral disks of vertebrates. It function is to act as a cushion and provide protect between vertebraes.
