ligaments are connective tissues that hold one bone to another in the joint. from your elbow to your leg, anything in your body that is connected to your bone by a joint is a ligamentte

ligaments are located where there are joints in the body, ligaments reduce friction between the bones, making it easier for our joints to move. you can also get different types of ligament e.g blue, white fibro, etc :P
