Ligaments and tendons
A tendon (or sinew) is a tough band of fibrous
connective tissue that connects muscle to bone,
or muscle to muscle and is designed to withstand
tension. Tendons are similar to ligaments except
that ligaments join one bone to another. Tendons
and muscles work together and can only exert a
pulling force. In its most common use, a
ligament is a short band of tough fibrous
connective tissue composed mainly of long,
stringy collagen fibres. Ligaments connect bones
to other bones to form a joint. (They do not
connect muscles to bones that is the function of
tendons.) Some ligaments limit the mobility of
articulations, or prevent certain movements
altogether.

  • Peel off skin
  • Observe muscles first, look for their tendons
    insertions and origins.
  • Cut muscles off and observe bones, nerves,
    articulations
  • Can refer to tables in the manual for
    localization of the bones and muscles.
