APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Tendons (tough bands of connective tissue) attach skeletal muscle tissue to bones throughout your body. Your shoulder muscles, hamstring muscles and abdominal muscles are all examples of skeletal muscles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Skeletal muscle is attached by cord-like tendons to bone, such as in the legs, arms, and face. Skeletal muscles are called striated (pronounced: STRY-ay-ted) because they are made up of fibers that have horizontal stripes when viewed under a microscope.

Detailed explanation-3: -Tendons are formed of connective tissue that contains many strong collagen fibers. Tendons connect muscles to other structures, such as the eyeball. Tendons are vital in movement because they carry the muscle contraction force to the bone they are attached to. Tendons help to keep the joints in place.

Detailed explanation-4: -Skeletal muscles are attached to bones by tendons, and they produce all the movements of body parts in relation to each other. Unlike smooth muscle and cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle is under voluntary control.

Detailed explanation-5: -Skeletal muscle Skeletal muscles are usually attached to the bone by tendons.
