Why are ligaments the most important?
Tendons are very strong ropelike structures. They gradually arise from muscles. The power of muscles are transmitted by tendons. Muscles will take a larger area for origin or insertion. Tendons make the area dramatically less.
What are the benefits of warming up?
Warming up your muscles, ligaments and tendons will make them less susceptible to injury once you start exercising.
Tendons pass over the joint and contribute to the stength of the joint?
Structures closely related to tendons (joint capsules, tendon sheaths, pulleys, retinacula, of tendons, but do not make any major contribution to their tensile strength.
What tissue is attached to muscles and moves the skeleton?
Tendons are used to attach muscles to bones which will the move the bones. Tendons are a form of connective tissue. To make things somewhat confusing is the term ligaments which are exactly the same tissue but they attach bone to bone. I used to use these mnemonics: Tinkerbell Chirped Meanwhile Toto Barked. (TCMTB) Lambs Chuckled Because Tarzan Belched. (LCBTB)
What parts of synovial joint make it stable and strong?
Synovial joints are stabilized and strengthened primarily by several key components: the joint capsule, which encases the joint and provides structural integrity; ligaments, which connect bones and limit excessive movement; and the articular cartilage, which cushions the ends of bones and facilitates smooth motion. Additionally, the presence of synovial fluid within the joint cavity lubricates the joint and nourishes the cartilage, contributing to overall stability. Muscle tendons that cross the joint also play a crucial role in stabilizing the joint during movement.
What tissue connects bones to bones?
The tissue that connects bone to bone are called ligaments. They are responsible for providing stability to a joint. Cartilage, and ligaments make up the "connective tissue". And also Tendons (sinew), Auductive and Conductive Muscles and a decent argument for Joint Cartillage.

What is the difference between a muscle and a tendon?
Muscles,tendons,and bones are related because tendons connect muscle to bone and ligaments connect bone to bone.Tendons connect your muscles to your skeleton so that your muscles will make the bones move to were you need it to go.
How are muscles and joints related?
the muscle pulls the bone to make it move that how you move everyday
How do muscles make movement possible.?
It isn't just muscles, but the interaction between muscles, ligaments, tendons, nerves, and the bones that permit movement. In muscles only, it's contraction and relaxation, but without the rest involved, the muscles would not result in purposeful movements.
Why are tendons important to a muscles ability to make the body move in a chicken wing?
Tendons connect muscles to bone.
What is the name of the hip girdle?
Your ankle bone and the ends of your two lower leg bones make up the ankle joint. Your ligaments, which connect bones to one another, stabilize and support it. Your muscles and tendons move it. The most common ankle problems are sprains and fractures. A sprain is an injury to the ligaments. It may take a few weeks to many months to heal completely. A fracture is a break in a bone. You can also injure other parts of the ankle such as tendons, which join muscles to bone, and cartilage, which cushions your joints. Ankle sprains and fractures are common sports injuries
How can damaging the ligaments in a knee affect the knee joint?
It can make the joint unstable.
Tendons pass over the joint and contribute to the stength of the joint?
Structures closely related to tendons (joint capsules, tendon sheaths, pulleys, retinacula, of tendons, but do not make any major contribution to their tensile strength.
How are ligaments and cartilage functionally similar in joints?
No, tendons are not the same as ligaments. Unfortunately, I was absent a long time ago when my class learned about that. So here is something:People often talk about tendons and ligaments as if they are the same thing, but these two types of soft tissue actually perform different functions for the body.A tendon connects muscle to bone. These tough, yet flexible, bands of fibrous tissue attach to the skeletal muscles that move your bones. Tendons essentially enable one to move since they act as intermediaries between the muscles creating the motion of the bones.I'd say the most famous tendon is the Achilles tendon (named after the character Brad Pitt played in the movie Troy) which connects the muscles of your calf to your heel. Also, if you watch the tops of your hands while you type, you can see your tendons at work. Pretty cool, huh?So what's a ligament? If you want to know then read moreLigaments are similar to tendons, but they connect bone to bone and help to stabilize joints. They are composed mostly of long, stringy collagen fibers creating short bands of tough fibrous connective tissue.Ligaments are slightly elastic, so they can be stretched to gradually lengthen increasing flexibility. Athletes and dancers stretch their ligaments to make their joints more supple, and to prevent injury.Here's a cool fact: The term double-jointed refers to people who have more elastic ligaments.You might have heard of some of the ligaments found in the knee since they often tear, especially the ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) when skiing. In fact four ligaments connect the tibia (shin bone) to the femur (thigh bone) to provide structure for the knee.
