Are babies bodies made of cartilage?
babies do not have kneecaps until they are about two years of age. They do have cartlidge in the space until then so that their legs don't hyperextend, but the actual bone itself to make a kneecap does not form until way later. You can look this answer up, or even ask a doctor. same answer but a little more info: a baby's kneecap is made of cartlidge (see above) and the cartlidge grows in the 4th month of pregnancy

Babies are born without these and dont get them until they are 2-6 years oldwhat part of their body is it?
"Probably teeth" ^ this is wrong. Babies start to get their teeth before they even turn 1 year old, and its not that they are born with out their teeth. Their teeth are in their gums but haven't yet pushed their way out. I believe this person is referring to the fact that some people think that babies are born without knee caps and don't get them until around that age. This is wrong as well. Babies are born with knee caps, however they haven't ossified yet. A baby's kneecaps start off as cartilage and eventually ossify, becoming bone.
