What else can I help you with?
The contraction of a muscle exerts a pull on a bone because?
the muscle is attached to the bone via tendons, which transmit the force generated by the muscle contraction to the bone. This pull causes the bone to move, allowing for various types of body movements like walking or lifting objects.
What is the strong tissue that attaches the muscle to the bone?
Ligaments attach muscle to bone. Tendons connect bone to bone.
How do tendons relate to movement?
Tendons attach muscle to bone.
Tendons attach what?
Tendons attach muscle to bone Ligaments attach bone to bone
What connects bone and muscles together?
Tendons (muscle to bone)Ligament (bone to bone)
What are muscles attached to bone by?
tendons
Are tendons bone to bone or muscle to bone?
No, it is a very tough, fibrous material that connects muscle to bone.
How are muscles bones and tendons related?
Bones provide support to the muscles and give them something to pull against. Muscles are able to contract and relax to provide movement. Tendons are a bit like strings, which allow a muscle to pull on a distant bone. For instance, the muscles which raise and lower your fingers are actually in your wrists, and you can see the tendons which pull your fingers on the back of your hand.
To what special bone group does patella bone belong?
It is a sesamoid bone. This type develops in certain tendons where there is considerable friction, tension, and physical stress. Functionally, they protect tendons from excessive wear and tear, and they often change the direction of pull of a tendon, which improves the mechanical advantage of a joint.
What does not join bone to bone?
tendons
Do tendons attach to muscle and muscle attaches to bone?
Tendons attach muscle to bone, muscles do not attach to bone.
What attaches your muscle to your bones?
Tendons attach muscle to bone (whereas ligaments attach bone to bone).
