Fibrocartilage
Fibrous cartilage
Cartilage.
Discs are made of fibrocartilage.
The pubic symphysis is made up of fibrocartilage tissue. Fibrocartilage is a tough and dense connective tissue that is found in areas of the body requiring both strength and flexibility, such as the intervertebral discs and the pubic symphysis, which connects the two pubic bones.
The intervertebral discs are made up of fibrocartilage, which is a type of cartilage that has both collagen fibers and cartilage cells. This fibrocartilage provides strength and cushioning to the intervertebral discs, allowing them to absorb shock and maintain the structure of the spine.
The material is fibrocartilage, more specifically white fibrocartilage.The individual vertebrae are separated by pads of fibrocartilage (interverterbral discs) that absorb shocks while providing the spine flexibilty.
Intervertebral discs are the discs which cushion the vertebrae in the spinal column. Inside the disc is a gel substance which gradually starts to dry up with age. This causes a redistribution of weight on the spine, and causes chronic back pain in patients.
The intervertebral discs are made up of fibrocartilage. Fibrocartilage is a type of cartilage that contains both collagen fibers and cartilage cells (chondrocytes), providing the disc with strength and flexibility to absorb shock between the vertebrae in the spine.
Intervertebral discs are made up of a gel-like center called the nucleus pulposus surrounded by a tough outer ring called the annulus fibrosus. The nucleus pulposus contains a gel-like substance that can compress and absorb shock, helping to cushion the spine and facilitate movement.
