cartilage is like in the top of your ear!
It can be found in more than three places. But there are three types.Fibrous cartilage has a lot of collagen fibers and is found in the intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis.Hyaline cartilage is found in the embryonic skeleton, the end of long bones, costal cartilages, cartilage of the nose, trachea, and larynx.Elastic cartilage has elastic fibers in the matrix and it is found in the external ear and epiglottis.
Cartilage is a type of connective tissue found throughout the body, including in joints, the ear, the nose, and between vertebrae in the spine.
We call cartilage that is high in fiber fibrous cartilage. Fibrous cartilage is found in the intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis.
Bone contains capillaries but cartilage does not.
The elastic cartilage
Hyaline is the most common type of cartilage.
In adults, the ends of bones are covered by a type of connective tissue called articular cartilage. This cartilage provides a smooth surface that helps with joint movement and cushioning between bones.
Elastic Cartilage is found on the external ears and larynx.
Hyaline Cartilage
No, Children have allot of cartilage in their bodies, which turns to bone as they grow older.
Cartilage. Adults have cartilage in their joints, sternum, etc. Young babies have very little solid bone, but much cartilage.
The cartilage is found between all joints
Articular cartilage.
The cartilage is found between all joints
Children have more cartilage than adults because cartilage is a flexible connective tissue that allows for growth and development. During childhood, their bones are still maturing, and the presence of cartilage helps in the formation of bone structures and facilitates the growth of long bones. As children age, much of this cartilage is replaced by bone through a process called ossification, resulting in adults having a higher proportion of bone compared to cartilage. This transition is essential for achieving the strength and stability needed in fully developed skeletal systems.

Cartilage is found at the elbow joint so that the synovial fluid doesn't touches the ulna directly.
