What is "drainage"?

Drainage refers to the process of directing water or waste away from an area to prevent flooding or water buildup. It involves the use of pipes, channels, or other structures to move liquid waste, rainwater, or excess water to a designated area, such as a sewer or natural water body. Good drainage helps keep surfaces dry and safe, preventing damage to buildings or land. This system is commonly used in areas like roads, farms, and urban environments to manage water flow and avoid flooding.

an elastic tissue that supports or connects joints in an infant and turns into skeleton during growth

What is "cartilage"?

Cartilage is a flexible and resilient type of connective tissue found in various parts of the body. It serves as a cushioning and structural component, providing support and reducing friction between bones in joints. Cartilage is composed of specialized cells called chondrocytes embedded in a matrix of collagen fibers and proteoglycans. It has a smooth and rubbery texture, allowing for smooth joint movement and absorbing shock. Cartilage can be found in areas such as the nose, ears, and joints like the knee and hip. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the shape and integrity of certain body structures while providing a smooth surface for articulation and facilitating movement.

What is "demurrage"?

Demurrage is a fee charged for the delayed use of equipment, such as a shipping container, or for holding goods beyond a specified time. It is commonly used in transportation and logistics when a shipment or vehicle is kept longer than agreed upon, often due to delays in unloading or other reasons. The purpose of demurrage is to encourage prompt return of equipment and ensure that goods move through the supply chain efficiently.
