What skeletal muscles are attached to bones by fibers?
Skeletal muscles are attached to bones primarily by tendons, which are made of dense connective tissue. These tendons connect the muscle to the bone, allowing for movement when the muscle contracts. The fibers in tendons are composed of collagen, providing strength and durability. Notable examples of muscles that attach to bones via tendons include the biceps brachii and quadriceps femoris.
Are skeletal muscles attached to a bone?
Muscles are not part of the skeletal system but rather the muscular. They connect onto bones by tendons which are part of the skeletal system.the skeletal system includes:tendonsligamentscartilagebonesteeth (not a type of bone)
What muscle is tough brands of tissue that connect bones to the skeletal muscles?
The tough bands of tissue that connect bones to skeletal muscles are called tendons.

They are designed to withstand tension and help stabilize joints during physical activity.
