Detailed explanation-1: -A ligament is a fibrous connective tissue that attaches bone to bone, and usually serves to hold structures together and keep them stable.
Detailed explanation-2: -At fibrous entheses, the tendon or ligament attaches either directly to the bone or indirectly to it via the periosteum. In both cases, dense fibrous connective tissue connects the tendon/ligament to the periosteum and there is no evidence of (fibro)cartilage differentiation (Fig. 1a, b).
Detailed explanation-3: -A ligament is the fibrous connective tissue that connects two bones to form a joint. These are all found in the skeletal system of the human body. The ligaments provide joint stability. Their primary function is to prevent movement that might damage a joint.
Detailed explanation-4: -A ligament is a fibrous connective tissue that connects bones to other bones. They are elastic with a poor blood supply.
Detailed explanation-5: -For example, your knee has four ligaments that keep it from moving side to side or backward. Ligaments also hold the uterus in place in a woman’s pelvis. Additionally, they connect the liver, intestine and stomach and hold them in place.
