The correct combination of the features in cartilage with their terms is:
1. The outer covering layer of cartilage is called Perichondrium. A dense membrane that is composed of fibrous connective tissue that closely wraps all cartilage except the cartilage in joints.
2. The cells of cartilage are called chondrocytes. They produce and maintain the cartilaginous matrix, which consists mainly of collagen and proteoglycans.
3. The location spaces of cells in cartilage are called lacunae. The cartilage cells or chondrocytes are contained in cavities in the matrix, called cartilage lacunae.
4. The matrix of cartilage is called chondrin. The cartilage is a connective tissue that contains cells embedded in a matrix of chondrin.
5. Protein in cartilage is called chondroitin.
