What attaches skeletal muscles to bone?

Skeletal muscles can attach to bones directly and indirectly. A direct attachment is when the epimysium (the sheath of connective tissue surrounding the muscle fibre's exterior surface) sticks to and fuses with the periosteum (the connective tissue surrounding the exterior surface of the bone). An indirect attachment is when the epimysium extends beyond the muscle as a tendon and attaches to the periosteum of the bone. This attachment is more common in the human body than a direct attachment.

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
