Tendons are not extensions of muscle fibers. Rather, they are separate bands of tough, fibrous tissue that connect muscle to bone and allow them to move in conjunction.
yes
Tendons connect muscle to bone. Ligaments connect bones to other bones. Both are types of connective tissue. Tendons are extensions of the fibrous tissue between the muscle bundles. Ligaments are made mostly of collagen fibers, giving them a little more flexibility that tendons.
That attaches muscle to bone.
The skeletal muscle, or striated muscle, is the muscle attached to the skeleton. Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones by bundles of collagen fibers known as tendons. The contraction of skeletal muscle is under voluntary control.
short fibers, arranged obliquely to their tendons
Tendons hold muscle to bone.
Tendons attach muscle to bone.
You have three types of muscle fibers. 1) Skeletal muscle fibers. 2) Cardiac muscle fibers. 3) Smooth muscle fibers.

Muscle contractions power our movement by changing the relative positions of our bones. Muscles connect to the bone through cord-like extensions called tendons.

Tendons connect muscle to muscle and also muscle to bone.
Tendons attach muscle to bone, muscles do not attach to bone.
