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: -The tendon is attached to the bone by collagenous fibres (Sharpey fibres) that continue into the matrix of the bone.

Detailed explanation-3: -Tendons connect your muscles to your bones. They let your bones move as your muscles tighten and relax.

Detailed explanation-4: -Myotendinous junction. The junction that connects muscles to tendon cells. It is composed of ECM components, secreted into the space between the two cell types, that bind to integrin receptors on these cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
