Answer:

Articular articular cartilage is very important part of the long bone structure.

It also act as a shock absorber between the two bones and helps in the transmission of force from one phone to another and divide the force across the skeletal system. It also transmit the force on the bones with low fictional coefficient. The articular cartilage are very susceptible and prone to the injury and it lacks blood vessels and nerves. Articular cartilage is made up of hyaline cartilage and is made up of densely packed extracellular matrix which certain type of specialised cells known as chondrocytes. It is also made up of water , collagen , proteoglycans and glycoproteins .

Wavelength light source is part of the control group for William’s experiment

Then he was inquisitive to find the temperature beyond the red ray. That’s when he found the infrared rays which had higher temperature that was not to be seen through naked eyes. He performed experiments using the light source and found that the wavelength of light are not refracted in a particular pattern.
