Fibrous connective tissue
Dense fibrous connective tissues that connect muscle to bone are known as tendons.

The fibrous membrane surrounding each muscle is the fascia. This membrane comprises connective tissue.
fibrocartilageThey are fibrous dense connective tissue.Collagen is the most common component of tendons and ligaments.Connective tissue.Dense regular collagenousFibrous connective tissue and they are comprised mainly of collagen. They are also similar in composition to fasciae which connect muscle to muscle.
Several sheaths of connective tissue hold the fibers of a skeletal muscle together. These sheaths from internal to external are the first layer is the endomysium (within the muscle), the second is a layer of fibrous connective tissue called perimysium (around the muscle) and the third is the epimysium , a name that means “outside the muscle.
A tendon is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that connects muscles to bones
Different types of joints are held together by different tissues types:Sutures and gomphoses are held together by dense fibrous connective tissue. Synchondroses are held together by hyaline cartilage.Symphyses are held together by fibrocartilage.Diarthroses or synovial joints, the most common type of joints, are held together by ligaments and joint capsules, which are made of dense fibrous connective tissue.
muscles are attached to bone by fibrous connective tissue called tendons. Tendons attach the muscle to the bone by connecting and growing into the periosteum which surrounds the bone forming an anchor for the muscle.
