Solution

The correct option is A

Cartilage


The external ear is made up of cartilage. Cartilage is a firm, flexible tissue found where movement and flexibility is required.

Soft bones are caused to lack of calcium, phosphorous or vitamin D during the formation of a bone. This is undesired as it makes the bones weak.
