 Articular cartilage covers the surface of the articulating bones in synovial joints, providing a smooth and frictionless surface for movement.

Answer: E 
 Joint capsule is a fibrous structure that surrounds the synovial joint, consisting of an outer fibrous layer and an inner synovial membrane that produces synovial fluid.

Answer: F 
 Ligaments are bands of dense connective tissue that attach bone to bone, providing stability and limiting excessive movement at the joint.
