the key differences between tendons and the ligaments: Tendon connects muscles to bone, and are present at the end of skeletal muscles and are made of white fibrous connective tissue, whereas ligaments connect one bone to another bone, so found in joints and are made of yellow fibrous connective tissues

Difference Between Bones and Cartilage. A bone is a hard connective tissue, while cartilage is soft connective tissue. Bones form the skeletal structure of the body, whereas cartilage is present in nose, ear, ribs, larynx, and joints and also act as a shock absorber in these joints.

Explanation:

Tendons are cord-like structures which transmit muscular force to a bone. Though generally like long shiny cords, they can also be short, thick and flat. If you are looking at cuts of meat, tendons are best seen in the shank - the glistening slender things.

The term 'ligament' can be used in a variety of contexts. Most commonly, these are like tendons, but used to hold bones together. They are seen around joints.

Bone and cartilage are types of connective tissues in the body. A bone is hard tissue that forms the skeletal structure of the body. Cartilage, by comparison, is not as hard and rigid as bone, and is present in areas of the body like the ear, nose, and joints. In the joints of the body, cartilage covers the ends of the bones and acts as a shock absorber to prevent bones from rubbing against each other.
