Which cartilage is present at the end of long bones?

  1. Calcified cartilage
  2. Hyaline cartilage
  3. Elastic cartilage
  4. Fibrous cartilage

Answer

(2) Hyaline cartilage

Solution

The articular surfaces at the ends of long bones (e.g., femur, humerus) are covered by a smooth, glass-like hyaline cartilage (articular cartilage).

⇒ Its smooth matrix reduces friction and absorbs shocks at the joints.

∴ Hyaline cartilage is present at the ends of long bones.

Answer: (2)
