The correct option is d) cartilage as it smoothens surface of the bones.
Explanation:
- Cartilage can be described as a soft, firm connective tissue that is mainly found between joints of the body.
- For example, cartilage is present between the joints of elbow, knee as well as ankles.
- Hence, cartilage can be added in between bones to smoothen the surface of the bones.
- Other options such as option a is not correct because blood is not present in between the joints.
