We usually differentiate between bone and cartilage. They're not the same. Cartilage is generally thought of as a type of flexible connective tissue while bone is the relatively hard skeletal framework on which the body is built.
Bones are harder than cartilage, which is a firm but flexible connective tissue. Bones are also larger and provide more structural support and protection for the body compared to cartilage. Bones contain bone marrow, which is responsible for producing blood cells, while cartilage does not have this function.
No. But they do have plenty of cartilage the answer is the same for adults too.
All bones start as cartilage and over time they turn to bone.
The ends of bones in adults are covered with cartilage. Cartilage is a tough yet flexible tissue that helps to protect bones and allows them to move more freely where bone meets bone (a joint). There are different types of cartilage in the body. The cartilage that covers the ends of bones at a joint is known as articular cartilage, a specific type of hyaline cartilage.
It is found at either end of the long bones where it provides a shockabsorbance in the synovial joint capsule.
Sharks do not have bones, they have skeletons made of cartilage.

No. Sharks bones are made of cartilage though.
Ossification the the process that occurs when cartilage is replaced by bones!
cartilage protects the bones where they meet.

Cartilage tissue.
It would be false to say membrane bones develop from hyaline cartilage structures. It is cartilage, rather than membrane bones, that comes from hyaline cartilage structures.
Cartilage is what protects the bones where they meet.
I'm not sure if you're talking about cartilage or ligaments. Ligaments connect bones to each other, cartilage is used when something needs to be flexible (nose, ears) and I think it acts as a sort of pad between bones at a joint.
the cushion at the ends of the bones is called cartilage and is lubricated with sinovial fluid that is produced by your body.
