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 (tough bands of connective tissue) attach skeletal muscle tissue to bones throughout your body.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -What are ligaments? Ligaments are another kind of fibrous connective tissue, but instead of being what connects muscle to bone, they connect bone to other bones. They also help to maintain the position of your organs within the body.
