If a 53 year old patient is brought to the ER via an ambulance, where you are working as nurse. You will check his vitals and see what his symptoms are. If the patient has labored breathing and also has a fruity odor to his breath, and also has Type 1 diabetes this is a serious condition. The patient is most likely ketoacidosis. This can come on suddenly without warning and can be a life threatening condition. The body's cells are unable to get glucose during ketoacidosis.

Deffense [45]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- to provide smooth surface at the ends of synovial joint.

Explanation:

Articular cartilage is the white smooth tissue present at the end of the bones which covers the bones at the joints. The articular cartilage is devoid of the nerves, blood vessels and lymphatics but is exposed to the biochemical environment.

The cartilage at the joint helps in the movement of the bones by reducing the friction produced by gliding or sliding of the bones over each other.

Thus, to provide a smooth surface at the ends of synovial joint is the correct answer.
