An easy way to remember this for your A&P exam is that (B)one to Bone comes alphabetically before (M)uscle to bone. Since we know that the answers are ligaments and tendons, we remember that (L)igament comes alphabetically before (T)endon, and so Bone to Bone is Ligament and Muscle to Bone is Tendon. Hope this helps.
Of course there are other sorts of connective tissues in the body, but the bones and muscles are primarily connected by Ligaments and Tendons.
Ligaments are the type of tissue that holds bones together at the joints. Ligaments are tough, fibrous structures that connect bones and provide stability to the joint while allowing for movement.
Muscle tissue. Cardiac: the muscles in or related to the heart Skeletal: muscles that you can voluntarily control, such as your biceps Smooth: muscles in or around your organs, which cannot be voluntarily controlled (ie. the muscles in your stomach or intestines)
Yes. An example is in the dermis, which is very vascular. Dense regular connective tissue is not, however (consists of tendons and ligaments). The other kind of CT that is not vascular is cartilage. Source: medical school lectures
No, you don't have a nose bone. The hard surface you feel on your nose is cartilage, a kind of soft tissue. There are also cartilage on your ear. If your nose was made of bone, then you wouldn't be able to move it, same with your ears.
Kneecaps, also known as patellae, are made of a type of bone called sesamoid bones. These bones develop within tendons and are typically situated where the tendon passes over a joint, such as the kneecap resting within the quadriceps tendon. The patella helps to protect the knee joint and enhances the leverage of the thigh muscles during movements like running and jumping.
Muscles are connected to bones by strong connective tissue called ligaments.
all muscles pull on bones to create movement, since muscles are contractile and bone is rigid. the muscle attaches to the bone via the tendon.
Voluntary muscles, also called skeletal muscles, are attached to bones by tendons.

Hyaline cartilage is the forerunner of long bones in the embryo.

Cartilage is connective tissue. So it kind of connects the bones. its also helps in cushioning them
The bones give our body the structure and support needed to stay erect and the muscles allow us to move by contracting and expanding.
