Cartilage is classified in three types, elastic cartilage, hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage, which differ in relative amounts of cartilage.Chondroblasts that get caught in the matrix are called chondrocytes. Cartilage does not contain blood vessels (avascular) or nerves (aneural).artilage is classified in three types, elastic cartilage, hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage, which differ in relative amounts of cartilage.
This structure acts as both muscle and skeleton, for movement and stability. The long fibers of the cytoskeleton are polymers of subunits. The primary types of fibers comprising the cytoskeleton are microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments. Microfilaments are fine, thread-like protein fibers, 3-6 nm in diameter.
The tiniest main component of the cytoskeleton is the microfilament. Microfilaments are three to six nanometers in diameter and are composed of the protein actin. For this reason they are often referred to as actin filaments. The actin filaments are twisted together like two pieces of thread.
