Tendons are white, glistening, fibrous cords, varying in length and thickness, sometimes round, sometimes flattened, and devoid of elasticity.
Tendons connect muscle to bone. [View] The matrix is principally collagen, and the fibers are all oriented parallel to each other. Tendons are strong but not elastic.
