The correct option is A Tracheal rings and costal cartilages
Hyaline cartilage is the most abundant cartilage and it forms the articular surfaces of long bones, rib tips, rings of trachea, costal cartilage.
Costal cartilages are bars of hyaline cartilage that serve to prolong the ribs forward and contribute to the elasticity of the walls of the thorax.
So, the correct answer is 'tracheal rings and costal rings'.
