Dont cheat on your science test
ok, so this guy is obviously a jerk, but as to actually answer the question, it is true
Tendons attach muscles to bones. The very same tissue attaches bone to bones and they are called ligaments.
Tendons attach muscles to bones. The very same tissue attaches bone to bones and they are called ligaments.
Muscles are connected to bones by strong connective tissue called ligaments.
bones
Connective tissue is one which is rich in intercellular substance or interlacing processes with little tendency for the cells to come together in sheets or masses. Tendon and ligament are the connective tissue that connect bone to bone 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.
Tendons attach muscles to bones. An example is the Achilles tendon that attaches your calf muscle (gastrocnemius) to the bones in your foot.

Ligaments are the fibrous connective tissue that holds bones in a joint together.
ANSWER:These are called LigamentsAnd also Tendons, Auductive and Conductive Muscles and a decent argument for Joint Cartillage.
Ligaments and tendons are made up of dense connective tissue because they need to be strong and able to withstand the tension and forces exerted on them. The dense connective tissue provides structural support and helps in connecting muscles to bones (tendons) and bones to bones (ligaments).
No the tendons are part of the connective tissue
