Whats is cartilage?

What is the difference between a tendon and a ligament?

Where are the ligaments?

Ligaments are bands of tough elastic tissue around your joints. They connect bone to bone, give your joints support, and limit their movement. You have ligaments around your knees, ankles, elbows, shoulders, and other joints. Stretching or tearing them can make your joints unstable.Jul 31, 2021

How will you recognize tendons and ligaments?

Ligaments appear as crisscross bands that attach bone to bone and help stabilize joints. For example, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) attaches the thighbone to the shinbone, stabilizing the knee joint. Tendons, located at each end of a muscle, attach muscle to bone.

Structure

The chicken wing is made up of the same parts as humans. It consists of the bones humerus, radius and ulna and the muscles biceps, triceps, radialis longus and ulnaris.

Upper Wing

The upper wing is made up of the humerus, bicep and tricep. When you tug on the tip of the wing you can feel all of the muscles working together to create the movement. The bicep is the extensor and the tricep is the flexor.

Lower Wing

The lower wing is made up of the radius, ulna, radialis longus and ulnaris. When you tug on the tip of the wing you can feel that the radialis longus is the extensor and the ulnaris is the flexor.

Tissue, Joints and Cartilage

When we pulled away the muscle tissue we found tendons which is the tissue that connects the muscle to the bone. It was a shiny white colour and had a bit of a slimy look to it. We then had a look at the elbow joint and found ligaments which connect bones to bones. The elbow is connected by a hinge joint.
