Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue found in various parts of the body, including joints, ears, nose, and the ribcage. It provides support and cushioning, allowing for smooth movement at joints and flexibility in structures. Unlike bone, cartilage is not as hard and lacks a direct blood supply, which means it heals more slowly when damaged. Its primary function is to absorb shock and reduce friction between bones during movement.
