  Cartilage is not found in (a) nose                               (b) ear                                  (c) kidney                            (d) larynx

Answer:

  (c) Cartilage is specialized connective tissue, which is compact and less vascular. The cartilage cells (chondroblasts) are widely spaced and the matrix is reinforced by fibres. Cartilage occurs at the joints of bones, in the nose, ear, trachea and larynx. It helps in smoothening the surface at the joints. It lends support and provides flexibility to the body parts.
