TIBIAL TUBEROSITY
Tibial Tuberosity
Tibial tuberosity
Medial Collateral Ligament - Liimits sideways motion Lateral Collateral Ligament - Also limits sideways motion Anterior Cruciate Ligament - Limits rotation and forward motion of the tibia. Posterior Cruciate ligament - limits the backwards motion of the knee. Patellar Ligament - attaches the kneecap to the tibia
Radial Collateral Ligament
The patellar ligament connects the patella (kneecap) to your anterior tibia (shin bone).
anterior cruciate ligament?
The root ot a tooth is attached to an alevouls (socket in the jaw bone) as follows: Dentin (from the tooth) attaches to a substance called cementum; cementum attaches to a periodontal ligament; the ligament attaches to the jaw bone
The patellar tendon, just underneath the kneecap
tibial tuberosity
The patella and anterior tbia attach to the patellar ligament.

The patella has a base which is the attachment for the quadriceps tendon and the apex (more pointed end) which is the attachment for the patellar ligament which attaches the patella to the tibia.
The ridge on the tibia head is called the tibial tuberosity. It is a bony prominence on the anterior surface of the tibia where the patellar ligament attaches.
These muscles all have a ligament of insertion which is called the patellar ligament. This ligament inserts to the tibial tuberosity.
