Question

Which muscle is attached to a bone by tendons?

Answer 1

Many muscles are attached to bones by tendons. Tendons are strong, fibrous connective tissues that connect muscles to bones, allowing muscle movement and transmitting force from the muscle to the bone. Some examples of muscles attached to bones by tendons include the biceps brachii muscle in the upper arm, the quadriceps femoris muscle in the thigh, and the calf muscles (gastrocnemius and soleus) in the lower leg.
