Detailed explanation-2: -Tendons are the fibrous connective tissue that connects the muscles of the body to the bones of the body. Tendons are organized into a cord-like structure. The tendons allow the muscles to move the bones of the body by moving bones when the muscles contract.

There are different types of tendons which reflect the morphology of the muscle and their specific function.
