What are bundles of muscles fibers within a muscle called?
In forming whole muscles, individual muscle fibers are arranged in bundles, or fascicles, held together by fibrous connective tissue.Answer is Fascicles.
What is the name and location of three connective tissue layers of muscles?
There are only 3.The endomysium is the connective tissue that surrounds each muscle fiber (cell).The perimysium encircles a group of muscle fibers, forming a fascicle.The epimysium encircles all the fascicles to form a complete muscle.A tendon is a cordlike extension of the preceding three linings. It extends beyond the muscle tissue to connect the muscle to a bone or to other muscles.There are only 3.The endomysium is the connective tissue that surrounds each muscle fiber (cell).The perimysium encircles a group of muscle fibers, forming a fascicle.The epimysium encircles all the fascicles to form a complete muscle.A tendon is a cordlike extension of the preceding three linings.

What bones are conected to each other in your tendon muscle?
There is no such thing as the tendon muscle. Muscles contract to move joints tendons connect bone to help form joints.
The tendon attached to each heel bone is thicker and stronger than those attached to the wrist bone why is this important?
Because this tendon has to articulate the whole mass of the body, whereas in the wrist are several tendons and these only articulate the hand.
What tissue attaches bones and muscles to the bone?
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.
What is the function of tendon?

Distinguish between tendons and ligament?
Tendons join muscles to bones in the body, whereas ligaments join bones to each other. The term ligament is also used loosely in medical anatomy to mean various types of suspensory structures, such as the broad ligament of the uterus which isn't really a ligament at all, rather a double-fold of the peritoneum.
Why it is important that the tendon attached to each heel bone is thicker and stronger than those attached to the wrist bone?
B/c you feet has to carry all your weight when you're walking. Something which your hands rarely has to do.
How are muscles connected with muscles?
This question isn't very clear but I think I know what you are trying to ask... In the body, muscles are not attached to each other, but they are attached to the bone structure. Without bones, muscles would not stay in the shape of your are for example, instead it would shrivel into a lump every time you tried to use it.
How many extrinsic eye muscles are attached to the exterior surface of each eyeball?

What are fibrous bands that connect muscle to bones?
A tendon (or sinew) is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that usually connects muscle to bone. A tendon is capable of withstanding tension. Tendons are similar to ligaments and fascia as they are both made of collagen, except that ligaments join one bone to another bone, and fascia connect muscles to other muscles. Tendons and muscles work together and can only exert a pulling force. At each end of a muscle, the collagen fibers come together to form a bundle of fibers called a tendon that attaches them to bones. If it forms a broad tendinous sheet it is called an aponeurosis.
How are bones attached to other bones?
Bones are attached to each other by ligaments, strong bands of tissue that may be flexible in some motions.(The similar tissues, tendons, connect the muscles to other muscles and to bones.)
