Does a liagament indirectly attaches skeletal muscle to bone?

Yes, ligaments do not attach skeletal muscles directly to bones. Ligaments are fibrous connective tissue that connects bones to bones, while tendons are the structures that attach skeletal muscle to bone. Tendons transmit the force from muscle contraction to the bone to produce movement.


What type of tissue is the skeletal muscle?

Skeletal muscle is a striated muscle used to control movement of specific body parts


How does the contraction of the I band contribute to the overall function of skeletal muscle?

The contraction of the I band in skeletal muscle helps to shorten the muscle fibers, allowing for movement and muscle contraction. This contributes to the overall function of skeletal muscle by enabling the muscle to generate force and produce movement.
