What Connective tissue found at the end of bones?
At the end of bones, you have cartilage separating bones from other bones. You have tendons attaching them to other bones or muscles.
At the end of bones there is a tough smooth surface called what?
Each bone has a tough, smooth, shiny substance that covers the end. This substance that covers the ends of bones is called cartilage.
The connective tissue at the end of long bones is?
Tendon
What tissue on bones end that absorbs shocks and reduce friction?
Cartilage
What is the Strong smooth tissue which covers the end of bones?
Cartilage
Why is there cartilage on the end of bones?
Cartilage is connective tissue. So it kind of connects the bones. its also helps in cushioning them
Are the bones connected to each other?
The joints.
What type of tissue covers the end of long bones?
articular cartilage Hyaline cartilage
What tough smooth surface is at the end of bones?
This is the articular cartilage that provides for cushioned and lubricated movements at joints between bones (known as synovial joints)
What is the texture of the material at the end of bones?
The ends of bones in moveable joints is like soft but tough leather. At the other joints it varies from thick fibers to none.
How are tendons associated with the muscular system?
It is the tough, fibrous tendons that actually attach the muscle to the bones of the skeleton. Generally, tendons attach to at least two different bones to create a lever for the muscles to act upon - the tendons at one end of the muscle belly being attached to one bone, and at the other end, the tendon/s attaches to the other bone. The fibrous tissue surrounding the muscle is all continuous with the tendon at each end.
What holds bones together at joints?
If you are asking what holds bones together at the joints, it is the tough fibrous band of connective tissue called Ligaments. Ligaments are composed of dense bundles of fibers and spindle-shaped cells (fibroblasts and fibrocytes), with little ground substance. White ligament is rich in sturdy, inelastic collagen fibers, yellow ligament is more elastic.
