How are tendons associated with the muscular system?
It is the tough, fibrous tendons that actually attach the muscle to the bones of the skeleton. Generally, tendons attach to at least two different bones to create a lever for the muscles to act upon - the tendons at one end of the muscle belly being attached to one bone, and at the other end, the tendon/s attaches to the other bone. The fibrous tissue surrounding the muscle is all continuous with the tendon at each end.

What part of the body does the bicep move?
The biceps muscle is located in the front area of the upper arm. The biceps muscle helps to stabilize the large bone in the upper arm (the humerus) in the shoulder socket. It also helps to accelerate and decelerate the arm during overhead activities, like tennis or pitching. The biceps tendons keep the biceps muscle attached to the shoulder at one end and the elbow at the other end. Tendons are strong cord-like structures that connect each end of the biceps muscle to bones. At one end of the biceps muscle, tendons connect the biceps to the shoulder in two places. At the other end of the muscle, tendons connect the biceps muscle to the smaller bone (radius) in the lower arm. Source:AAOS
How many tendons are in the foot?
how many tendons are in the foot?The number of tendons in the foot will be roughly equal to two times the number of intrinsic foot muscles plus the number of extrinsic foot muscles. There are 19 or 20 intrinsic foot muscles, therefore 38 to 40 intrinsic foot muscle tendons. How many extrinsic foot muscles?a cord or band of dense, tough, inelastic, white,fibrous tissue, serving to connect a muscle with a bone orpart
What are the functions of tendons?
The function of a tendon is a type of soft tissue that connects muscle tissue to bones just like ligaments that connect two or more bones. The purpose of tendons is to transfer force between muscle and bone.This allows the joint movement that allows for everyday activities like walking or reaching. Tendons can have several shapes ranging from wide and flat, ribbon and fan shaped.Tendons connect muscles to bones.
