The most springy and flexible type of cartilage among the options you provided is **c. elastic cartilage**.
Elastic cartilage contains a high density of elastic fibers, which gives it a greater degree of flexibility and resilience compared to fibrocartilage (which is more suited for tensile strength) and hyaline cartilage (which provides support and structure but is less flexible).
Elastic cartilage contains a high density of elastic fibers, which gives it a greater degree of flexibility and resilience compared to fibrocartilage (which is more suited for tensile strength) and hyaline cartilage (which provides support and structure but is less flexible).
