Answer:

True

Explanation:

Fibrous cartilage consists of several collagen fibers both type I and type II. This makes fibrous cartilage flexible, tough, and elastic. This structure of fibrous cartilage acts like a intercalated bones and helps in dissipating compressive force as the collagen undergo differential staining  when it is under compression as compared to the stain created when collagen in under tension. Thus, it possess compressive stiffness and shear moduli that can bear load and wear resistance

Hence, the given statement is true

Ratling [72]
The sense organs that are located on the head and in the mouth of a fetal pig are the Ears, mouth, eyes, nose, and tongue. The pig, just like humans, experiences sound, sight, taste, smell, heat, cold, pain and also balance. The way it responds to these assists humans in the recognition of health and diseases. For instance pain and the posture will often indicate a specific disease such as a fracture of the vertebrae in the spine.
