The answer is the fourth one (D): manubriosternal.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Intercarpal joint: This is a type of synovial joint found between the carpal bones of the wrist. Synovial joints typically have articular cartilage, which is a type of hyaline cartilage, but the question is likely looking for a more specific example where hyaline cartilage is a primary component.

  2. Intervertebral disc: These discs are composed of fibrocartilage, not hyaline cartilage. They are located between the vertebrae in the spine and provide cushioning and support.

  3. Symphysis pubis: This is a cartilaginous joint where the bones are joined by fibrocartilage, not hyaline cartilage. It is located between the left and right pubic bones.

  4. Manubriosternal: This joint, also known as the sternal angle, is where the manubrium and the body of the sternum meet. It is a cartilaginous joint that contains hyaline cartilage, making it the correct answer.

In summary, the manubriosternal joint is an example of a joint that contains hyaline cartilage.
