Question
which cartilage type is found between the two pubic bones making up the pubic symphysis?
answers: a - e
a synovial cartilage
b hyaline cartilage
c dense cartilage
d fibrocartilage
e elastic cartilage
Fibrocartilage is tough and shock - absorbing. The pubic symphysis is a cartilaginous joint. Fibrocartilage's properties make it suitable for this joint between the pubic bones. Synovial is not a cartilage type. Hyaline cartilage is more common in areas like the ends of long bones. Dense is not a standard cartilage type. Elastic cartilage is more for structures like the ear. So, fibrocartilage (D) is correct.
