Measurement: Flux is a total, and is not âper unit areaâ or âper unit volumeâ. Flux is the total force you feel, the total number of bananas you see flying by your surface. Think of flux like weight. (There is a separate idea of flux density (flux/volume) called divergence, but thatâs a separate article).
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.artilage /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.

As its name implies, cortical bone forms the cortex, or outer shell, of most bones. Again, as its name implies, compact bone is much denser than cancellous bone, which is the other type of osseous tissue. Furthermore, it is harder, stronger and stiffer than cancellous bone.ortical bone facilitates bone's main functions: to support the whole body, protect organs, provide levers for movement, and store and release chemical elements, mainly calcium.
