absorbs any compression placed on the joint, reduces friction between bones, and prevents the ends of the bones from being crushed

What tissue that covers the articulating surface of a bone?
Actually it's cartilages and the synovial fluid which makes the joint movements smooth.....
What covers the joint surfaces of long bones?
reticular tissue
What is a tough fibrous membrane that covers the shaft of a long bone?
The dense fibrous tissue that covers non articulating surfaces of bone is the periosteum.
Which location we do not see hyaline cartilage?
Hyaline cartilage normal covers the articular surfaces of bones in typical synovial joints and primary cartilaginous joints. Certail joints do not have hyaline cartilage covering the bony elements. These include: 1. Fibrous Joints - skull sutures, gymphosis (teeth) and interosseus joints (radius and ulna shafts) 2. Atypical Synovial Joints (these have fibrocartilage instead of hyaline cartilage covering the bones). These include the Temporomandibular (TMJ), Acromioclavicular Joint (ACJ), Sternoclavicular Joint, and 2nd to 7th Sternocostal Joints.
What type of cartilage covers the articulating surfaces of bones?
there are 3 types of cartilage. 1Hyaline cartilage: This type of cartilage has very thin fibers having same refractive index as the matrix of the cartilage and thus these fibers are not seen. Hyaline cartilage is the articular cartilage of long bones, sternum, ribs etc. Its color is bluish white and it is flexible. 2Fibrous cartilage: This type of cartilage has numerous white fibers. It is present in the symphysis pubis, and sternoclavicular joint etc. Its color is glistening white and the appearance is opaque. 3Elastic cartilage: This type of cartilage has numerous yellow elastic fibers. It is present in the ear pinna, external auditory meatus, Eustachian tubes, and epiglottis etc. Its color is yellowish and the appearance is opaque.

What type of cartilage covers the opposing bony surfaces in a synovial joint?
hyaline cartilage

Covers long bone except at its joint surfaces?
Cartalige
What is the function of epitheilial tissue?
Epithelial Tissue are tissue that forms glands, covers surfaces and lines cavities.
What part of the long bone protects articulating surface?
Articular cartilage, also called hyaline cartilage, is the smooth, glistening white tissue that covers the surface of all the freely moveable joints, such as the knee and shoulder, in the human body.
What is articular carrilage?
hyaline cartilage A Hyaline cartilage, but lacking perichondrion
Which connective tissue appears glassy and smooth?
The connective tissue that appears to be glassy and smooth is known as hyaline cartilage. It covers the end of the long bones so as to avoid compression.
