What is the texture of materials at end bones?
At the end of long bones, the material is primarily composed of hyaline cartilage. Hyaline cartilage is a type of smooth, solid, and flexible connective tissue that is found in various parts of the body, including the articular surfaces of joints and the ends of long bones. It is composed of a dense matrix of collagen and elastin fibers, as well as specialized cells called chondrocytes. The texture of hyaline cartilage is smooth, glistening, and has a bluish-white color.
