Solution

The correct option is B Fibrous
White fibrous cartilage is the strongest type of cartilage that is present in the spinal column in between the intervertebral discs. The strength of the cartilage is supported by firm matrix and plentiful white fibers, thereby allowing it to act as a shock-absorbing cushion to maintain the good health of the spine.
