What muscle moves bones?
There are three types of muscle in your body: striated, smooth and cardiac. The striated muscle is also called skeletal muscle and it is this type of muscle that moves your joints. Skeletal muscles are attached by tendons to the bones that they act on.
Muscles that contract to bring two bones closer together are called?
The muscles that contract to bring two bones closer together are called flexor muscles. These muscles work by decreasing the angle between the two bones, resulting in movement such as bending the arm or leg.
What are the differences between a tendon, a ligament, and a muscle in terms of their functions and structures?
Tendons connect muscles to bones, allowing movement. Ligaments connect bones to other bones, providing stability. Muscles contract and relax to produce movement. Tendons and ligaments are tough and fibrous, while muscles are made of muscle fibers.
What do tendons link together?
Muscle FibersTendons connect muscles to bones. Not to be confused with ligaments, which connect bones to other bones.Tendons are fibrous connective tissue that are made of collagen. They most commonly connect muscles to bones. The strongest tendon in the human body is the Achilles tendon.
What connects bone to muscle?
Tendons connect bone to muscle. Tendons are tough, flexible bands of tissue that anchor muscles to bones, enabling the muscles to exert force and move the bones. The strong bond between tendons and bones allows for efficient movement and joint stability.
Connection of muscles to the bone that moves?
tendons Actually that's wrong. Tendons are CONNECTIVE TISSUE that BINDS muscles to bones.. The answer your looking for is actually "Insertion" Or "Insertion Of a Muscle". Also The connection of muscle to a STATIONARY bone is "Origin" Or "Origin Of a Muscle.
Where is skeletal muscles located?
If you think about it, skeletal muscle are muscles that connect bones. So wherever you have bone, it is covered with skeletal muscle. Muscles do not connect bones. Muscles are the source for movement and protection for bones.
What is the difference between muscles and tendons?
Muscles contract to facilitate movement. Tendons attach muscles to bones. Ligaments attach bones to other bones.
What muscle moves bones?
There are three types of muscle in your body: striated, smooth and cardiac. The striated muscle is also called skeletal muscle and it is this type of muscle that moves your joints. Skeletal muscles are attached by tendons to the bones that they act on.
How muscle are connected to the bone?
Only skeletal muscles are connected to bones. They don't attach directly to the bones, but are attached by tendons that emerge at the ends of the muscle groups or individual muscles. Smooth muscles are organ muscles, and cardiac muscle is specialized conductive muscle of the heart. Answer courtesy of gallop

The muscles that contract to bring two bones closer together are called flexor muscles. These muscles work by decreasing the angle between the two bones, resulting in movement such as bending the arm or leg.
Muscles that move bones are called?
Muscles that move bones are called Smooth muscle cells or Skeletal muscles
Why do we need both muscles and bones to move our body?
one muscle to contract and the other muscle to retract
