Best Answer

Skeletal muscles are spindle, flat-shaped or circular in shape. The circular ones have attachments called "heads" at their ends. Most of the skeletal muscles are attached to bones by cord-like tendons. Some of these muscles are attached to skin, cartilage, or other structures in the body such as the eye ball. Some of these muscles have intermediate tendons as well as aponeurosis.
