The given statement is true.

Fibrocartilage comprises an amalgamation of cartilaginous tissue and white fibrous tissue in various extents. It exhibits toughness and flexibility due to the presence of the former constituent, and the property of elasticity due to the latter. It is only cartilage, which comprises both the type I and II collagen.  

Fibrocartilage is found on the pubic symphysis, and on the soft tissue to bone attachments. Fibrocartilage is a dense, tough, and fibrous component, which assists in filling the torn part of the cartilage.

The change in electrical potential that occurs when an impulse passes through a nerve cell
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The answer to this definition is: ACTION POTENTIAL

Explanation:

Action potential is a phenomenon in nervous system used to describe a change in electrical current that occurs when an impulse passes through a neuron or nerve cell. Action potential is induced when sodium (Na+) ions move from the extracellular environment into the intracellular environment.

Impulse travels across the axon of a neuron and thereby causes a difference in the electric potential i.e. - mv to + mv. This process, according to this question, whereby a change in electrical potential occurs due to the passage of an impulse through a nerve cell is termed ACTION POTENTIAL.
