Fibrocartilage
Fibrocartilage- its between the vertebrae as intervertebral disks cartilage The neurocentral cartilage (NCC) described by Schmorl [14] as an intermediate cartilage has aroused discussion among numerous authors as to its role, its age of closure and its possible involvement in the genesis of scoliosis. The authors have attempted to define these problems on the basis of a histologic study of 20 vertebral specimens of different ages and a scanographic study of 25 children. The NCC remains open until adolescence and even beyond, but its maximal activity is probably around 5-6 years. Part of its function is to ensure growth of the posterior arch. Finally, the scanograms of scoliosis show the NCC to be more widely open on the concave side, as if this remained active for a longer period.

What is the smooth tissue that acts as a buffer between bones?
Cartilage is the smooth tissue that acts as a buffer between bones, providing cushioning and reducing friction during movement. It helps to absorb shock and distribute weight evenly across the joints.
Which type of connective tissue is found in the trachea and between the ribs and sternum?
The type of connective tissue found in the trachea and between the ribs and sternum is hyaline cartilage. Hyaline cartilage is a smooth and flexible type of connective tissue that provides support and reduces friction between bones.
What is the substance called that is between bones?
It's called 'bone marrow', and it's function is the manufacturing of haemoglobin. A patient with leukaemia, (cancer of the blood), would geta bone marrow transplant.
Where do humans have cartilage located in their bodies?
Humans have cartilage located in their bodies in areas such as the ears, nose, joints, and between bones.
What happens to the cartilage between your ribs and breastbone when you breathe?
The cartilage between your ribs and breastbone allows for flexibility and movement of the ribcage during breathing. As you inhale, the cartilage expands and stretches, while it contracts and returns to its original position when you exhale. This movement helps to accommodate the expansion and contraction of the chest cavity during breathing.
What is the cushion between two bones?

What acts as a shock absorber between bones?
The shock absorber between bones is called cartilage.
What is between the bones?
cartilage
What cartilage articulates from bone to bone?
hyaline cartilage is located in between bones
What keeps cartilage from rubbing together?
There is a cartilage disc between each vertebrae.
What is the smooth tissue that acts as a buffer between bones?
Cartilage is the smooth tissue that acts as a buffer between bones, providing cushioning and reducing friction during movement. It helps to absorb shock and distribute weight evenly across the joints.
Would you expect to find more cartilage between your arm and should bones or between the bones of the skull?
you expect to find more cartilage between the arm and the shoulder because the cartilage is found in many bones.
Does Articular cartilage increase friction between bones?
Cartilage in joints REDUCE friction.
