ligaments connect bone to bone, tendons connect muscle to bone and cartilage is the semi solid bones that are present at the places where they required. For example: our external ears, nose, between 2 joints cartilage is present.

Joints refer to the general term of what holds are bones together. Ligaments are something contained in joints, they are what actually attaches one bone to another. Ligaments and tendons are very similar as well, ligaments are bone to bone, tendons are muscle to bone.

Yes, The difference between ligaments and tendons are ligaments are BONE TO BONE. And the tendons are BONE TO MUSCLE.

Ligaments are the tough tissue that attaches bones at joints and tendons are tough tissue also but attach the bone to muscle (or muscle to bone, vice versa).

Tendons and ligaments are both muscle tissues. However tendon connects bones to muscles and ligament connects bones to bones. They are both important tissues.

TENDONS are more TENDER than ligaments because tendons connect MUSCLE to bone, while ligaments connect bone to bone.
