A shark's skeleton is made up of cartilage.
No, some animals have an external skeleton like insects and crustaceans. Others have an internal skeleton like fish and birds and people. Some internal skeletons are made of cartilage like sharks and some are made of bone and cartilage together, like mammals.
Vertebrates are animals that have a backbone and an internal bony skeleton and include fish such as barracudas.
A cartilage skeleton is a structure primarily composed of cartilage, a flexible and resilient connective tissue, rather than bone. This type of skeleton is characteristic of certain animals, such as sharks and rays, which belong to the class Chondrichthyes. In some juvenile vertebrates, like amphibians, a cartilage skeleton can also serve as a precursor to a bony skeleton that develops later in life. Cartilage allows for greater flexibility and lighter weight compared to a bony skeleton.
yes; endoskeleton of vertebrates may be either bone or cartilage
Synovial fluid reduces friction between bones at joints. It is a lubricating fluid secreted by the synovial membrane and contains hyaluronic acid and lubricin to facilitate smooth movement between bones.
