What else can I help you with?
What muscle arrangement fibers run tangentially or feather?
The Pennate arrangement. The fascicles attach obliquely to the tendon.
What isA tendon is a continuation of collagen fibers of?
A tendon is a continuation of collagen fibers from muscle tissue that attach muscle to bone. Tendons are tough and flexible connective tissues that help transmit the force generated by muscle contractions to move the bones they are attached to.
What is the muscle fiber arrangement in a pennate muscle?
short fibers, arranged obliquely to their tendons
What dense connective tissue attaches muscle to bone?
Skeletal muscle is the type attached to bones.
Cord of collagen fibers that attaches a muscle to a bone?
tendon
Cord of connective tissue that joins a muscle to a bone?
The part of anatomy that fits this description is the tendon, which attaches the muscle to bone.
A tendon attaches one bone to another?
No, a tendon attaches a muscle to bone. A ligament attaches a bone to another bone.
What are tendons made of and what do attach to as they attach to muscles?
Tendons are made of tough, fibrous connective tissue composed mainly of collagen fibers. They attach to muscles at one end and to bones at the other end, transferring the force generated by the muscle to the bone to produce movement.
What is the name for a muscle attached at only one end?
A muscle attached at only one end is called unipennate muscle. It has a single tendon and its muscle fibers run diagonally to the tendon.
What is the function of the sharpey's fibers?
The function of the sharpey's fibers were specialized collagen fibers that help attach a tendon to a bone by deep penetration into bone at right angels.
When a muscle joins a boin and has no visible tendon it is said to have what?
When a muscle joins a bone without a visible tendon, it is said to have a fleshy attachment. This means that the muscle fibers extend all the way to the bone without a distinct tendon separating them.
What is muscle attached to?
Muscle attaches to tendons which then attach to bone. "attachments" occur as smooth transitions from muscle to tendon, so that there is no precise discontinuity between what is called muscle and what is called the tendon.
