Cartilage is a thin, fibrous, flexible connective tissue, which is mainly found in the external ear, larynx, respiratory tract, and the articulating surface of the joints. These cartilages lack blood vessels; therefore, the growth and development of these tissues are slower compared to that of other tissues. Altogether, there are three different types of cartilages, namely:

  1. Hyaline cartilage: It serves as a shock absorber and allows the smooth movement of the bones at joints. They are mainly found in the nose, respiratory tract, and joints
  2. Fibrocartilage is found in the knee, and it is tough and inflexible.
  3. Elastic cartilage is found in-ear, epiglottis, and larynx. It is the most flexible cartilage.
