  • Articular Cartilage: Understanding Joint Cushioning & Movement
    The cartilage that articulates with another bone or process is called articular cartilage.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Articulation: This refers to a joint where two bones meet.

    * Cartilage: This is a type of connective tissue that is smooth, flexible, and provides cushioning and support.

    * Articular cartilage: This is a specific type of cartilage that covers the ends of bones within a joint. It's very smooth and allows bones to move against each other with minimal friction.
