B. Cartilage
EXPLANATION: Catilage is present between tibia and femur. It acts as shock absorber to the knee during any weight-bearing activities. During this time cartilage gives stability to knee. Cartilage provides a smooth, friction-free surface that allows the joints of our body to work properly and a painless moving ability to the bones.
