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.
Better AnswerThe connective tissue that connects muscle and bone is called the Periosteum, which is the connective tissue covering of the Bone. The tendon is a middleman that connects the bone to the muscle.The tendon is continuous with the muscle via Epimysium, which the outer covering of the muscle.
Muscle is attached to bone by tendons.
