Question

In which part or organ of human body cartilage is NOT found?

A.

Nose

B.

Trachea

C.

Bronchiole

D.

Knee joint

Correct option is C


The correct answer is (c) Bronchiole. Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue found in various parts of the human body, such as the nose, trachea, and knee joint. However, bronchioles, which are smaller airways within the lungs, do not contain cartilage. They are composed primarily of smooth muscle and epithelial cells, which allow them to constrict and dilate, aiding in the regulation of airflow. Information Booster: Cartilage is present in larger airways such as the trachea and bronchi to provide structural support and maintain an open airway. In the nose, cartilage provides shape and flexibility, allowing for the movement and support of the nasal structure. The knee joint contains cartilage, specifically articular cartilage, which reduces friction and absorbs shock between bones during movement. Bronchioles, being smaller branches of the respiratory system, rely on smooth muscle rather than cartilage for flexibility and movement.
