Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary role of the tendons in the muscular system? (2020)
  • Step 1: Understand what tendons are. Tendons are strong, flexible tissues in our body.
  • Step 2: Know where tendons are found. They connect muscles to bones.
  • Step 3: Learn how muscles work. When a muscle contracts (gets shorter), it pulls on the tendon.
  • Step 4: See what happens when the tendon is pulled. The tendon then pulls on the bone it is attached to.
  • Step 5: Realize the result of this action. This pulling causes the bone to move, which allows us to move our body.
