Cartilage /ËkÉrtÉ¨lÉ¨dÊ/ is a flexible connective tissue in animals, including the joints between bones, the rib cage, the ear, the nose, the bronchial tubes and the intervertebral discs.It is not as hard and rigid as bone, but it is stiffer and less flexible than muscle.he compression of the articular cartilage or flexion of the elastic cartilage generates the pumping action, which assists the diffusion to the chondrocytes. Compared to other connective tissues, cartilage has a very slow turnover and is not easy to repair.
