Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Skeletal muscles are held to the bones with the help of tendons (say: TEN-dunz). Tendons are cords made of tough tissue, and they work as special connector pieces between bone and muscle. The tendons are attached so well that when you contract one of your muscles, the tendon and bone move along with it.

Detailed explanation-2: -The locomotor system is also known as the musculoskeletal system. It is made up of the skeleton, the skeletal muscles, tendons, ligaments, joints, cartilage and other connective tissue. These parts work together to allow movement.

Detailed explanation-3: -The muscles of the muscular system keep bones in place; they also play a role in movement of the bones by contracting and pulling on the bones, allowing for movements as diverse as standing, walking, running, and grasping items. To allow motion, different bones are connected by joints.
