The thin superficial zone that protects the deeper layers from shear stresses is called _______ zone.

The thin superficial zone that protects the deeper layers from shear stresses is called _______ zone. Correct Answer tangential

The dainty shallow (extraneous) zone shields further layers from shear stresses and makes up around 10% to 20% of articular cartilage thickness. The collagen filaments of this zone (principally, type II and IX collagen) are stuffed firmly and adjusted parallel to the articular surface.
