ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -A tendon is a fibrous connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone. Tendons may also attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball. A tendon serves to move the bone or structure.

Detailed explanation-2: -Tendons connect your muscles to your bones. They let your bones move as your muscles tighten and relax.

Detailed explanation-3: -Tendons are fibrous connective tissues that link muscles to bones. The eyeball connection to the sockets is through these tendons. A ligament is a fibrous connective tissue that connects bone to bone and helps to keep structures together and stable.

Detailed explanation-4: -Tendons are soft, fibrous tissues that connect muscle to bone. Their main function is to transfer muscle generated force to the bony skeleton, facilitating movement around a joint, and as such they are relatively passive, inelastic structures, able to resist high forces.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
