Expert Solution

Step 1

[Cartilage is smooth elastic tissue ,rubber like padding that covers and protects the ends of long bone at the joints and it is structural component of the rib cage, the ear, the nose, bronchial tubes, inter vertebral discs and many other body components.Because of the rigidity , it serves to hold tubes open in body. For example rings of trachea such as cricoid cartilage and Carina.]

[Perls Prussian blue stain is a dark blue pigment produced by oxidation of ferrous ferrocyanide salts.]

[Reticular fibers is a type of fiber in connective tissue composed of type III collagen secreted by reticular cells.]
