Skeletal muscle is the type attached to bones.
Connective tissue is one which is rich in intercellular substance or interlacing processes with little tendency for the cells to come together in sheets or masses. Tendon and ligament are the connective tissue that connect bone to bone and muscles to bones.
Tendons attach to MUSCLE TO BONE. Ligaments attach BONE TO BONE.

Joints and tendons.

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.
Epithelial, muscle, and nervous. Disagree- the 3 subgroups are: loose, dense, and connective tissue with special properties. Subgroups within dense are: dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are interwoven in disordered fashion, and dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are in parallel bundles. Subgroups in the special properties connective tissue are named to indicate the identifying feature, such as mucous connective tissue, elastic connective tissue or reticular connective tissue.

deep fascia
Dense connective tissue consists of many closely packed, thick, collagenousfibers and a fine network of elastic fibers.Collagenousfibers of dense connective tissue are very strong, enabling the tissue to withstand pulling forces. As parts of tendons and ligaments, dense connective tissue binds muscle to bone and bone to bone. This type of tissue is also in the protective white layer of the eyeball and in the deeper skin layers. The blood supply to dense connective tissue is poor, slowingtissue repair.The main function of dense connective tissue is to hold different structures to one another. For example, ligaments are the type of dense connective tissue that connect bones together.
Fascia
The main differences between the two are that when you look at smooth muscle you can see the actual muscle cells with the nucleus within it. In dense regular connective tissue, there are no cells visible, instead you see striations and collagen fibers.
Dense connective tissue such as tendons, which are very fibrose and very difficult to sever normally. Other tissues that are capable of contracting are smooth muscular and skeletal muscular, though the latter is stronger. Dense connective tissue does not contract. Muscle tissue does.
Dense connective tissue - it makes up the tendons.
