(ii) Ligaments are elastic structures which connect bones to bones.
(iii) Cartilage is a tough, flexible connective tissue found in all vertebrates consisting of cartilage cells (chondrocyte) in a matrix of collagen fibres and a rubbery protein gel (containing molecule such as chondrin).
Connective tissue is a tissue which is rich in intercellular substances (matrix) or interlacing processes with little tendency for the cells to come together in sheets or masses. This tissue pervades, supports and binds together other tissues and forms ligaments, tendons and aponeuroses.
