What kind of tissue attaches bones to bones and muscles to bones?

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.
