Answer:

b) avascular

Explanation:

Blood supply is an important factor necessary for quick healing of an injury. The cartilage is <em><u>an avascular tissue</u></em>, meaning there is no blood supply to the cartilage.

The prolonged recovery of this injury is basically due to the physiological fact that the cartilage is avascular. Tissues that have blood supply heal faster when damaged, when compared to damaged cartilages lacking blood supply.
