(A) False
(B) True
Question 68
Solution
The answer is (A) False: the original text in the question states that a tendon is a band of connective tissue that attaches and stabilizes one bone to another within a joint.
Explanation:
Tendons are actually bands of connective tissue that attach muscles to bones, not bone to bone. The connective tissue that attaches bone to bone is called a ligament. Therefore, the statement in the question is incorrect.
Summary:
The statement in Question 67 is false because tendons connect muscles to bones, not bones to other bones.
