Is it true fibrocartilage is weaker than elastic and hyaline cartilage?
Zuki999
In specific areas yes.
For example articular cartilage found in the knee and elbow is replaced by fibrocartilage when damaged as it lacks the ability to regenerate without the covering perichondrium

What are the differences between Hyaline cartilage elastic cartilage and fibrocartilage?
Fibrocartilage is found in intervertebral discs, in menisci of joints, and often occurs where tendon and ligament are joined to bones. It's main function is to reduce friction between the joints Hyaline cartilage is found lining articular surfaces, and in the nasal septum, tracheal rings, coastal cartilages, and the epiphyseal cartilage of growing bone. It has great tensile strength and provides flexible support.
Do action potentials become weaker with distance?
action potentials are non-decremental and do not get weaker with distance.

Is a weaker spring more or less elastic?
A weaker spring is more elastic because due to it becoming older by the passage of time. A weaker spring is more elastic because due to it becoming older by the passage of time.
Which protein permit streching and recoiling the skin?
Collagen is the major insoluble fibrous protein in the extracellular matrix and in connective tissue. It’s found in our muscles, bones, skin and tendons. Collagen production naturally begins to slow down as we age. Making wrinkles, sagging skin and weaker cartilage in the joints

Why do metallic elements bend and not break?
Ionic compounds are bonded by ionic bonds. These bonds are very strong and not elastic. There is no way to bend them, even at high temperatures. Metals are bonded covalently. These are much weaker bonds and can bend easier. The bonds are more elastic, allowing metals to be bent.
