What type of muscle attaches to the bone?
Very few, if any, skeletal muscles in the human body are not attached to bone at the origin or insertion. There are a few muscles which do not have 2 bony attachments, and instead are connected by tendinous sheaths to other muscles - the abdominal muscles come to mind. If we are talking all muscles, there are many - the heart, which is muscle, is not attached to bone. The smooth muscles in the vasculature, eyes, gut, esophagus, etc are not connected to bone. Depends on which muscle you mean. :) J. DeLaughter, DO

Internally, the diaphragm attaches to the inferior ribs. Many of the strap muscles of the back attach to the ribs. There are others as well.
