The end of bones are covered with a smooth, slippery, thick layer of tissue called CARTILAGE.WHY?Because it is flexible and important in joints because it acts as a shock absorber.It also makes movement easier. HOW? (how does it make movement easier?)By reducing friction that would be caused by bones rubbing together.Also a special tissue called Periosteum
LIGAMENTS
In adults, the ends of bones are covered by a type of connective tissue called articular cartilage. This cartilage provides a smooth surface that helps with joint movement and cushioning between bones.
Bones and cartilage are specialized tissues because they provide structural support and protection to the body. Bones are rigid and provide a framework for the body, while cartilage is flexible and acts as a cushion between bones to reduce friction and absorb shock. Both tissues have unique properties that make them well-suited for their specific roles in the body.
The connective tissue at the ends of long bones is called the articular cartilage. This smooth, slippery tissue helps to cushion the ends of bones and reduce friction during movement.

Periosteum
tendon (fibrous tissue) connects muscles to bones
The muscle tissue bones that make blood are called the Cancellous bone.
The tissue that connects two bones are the ligaments

The tough tissue the connects muscles to bones is called a ligament. This tissue also connects bones to bones and is called a tendon.
Tendons attach muscles to bones. The very same tissue attaches bone to bones and they are called ligaments.
