Answer 2

Answer:

There are different types of muscles and joints, each with different functions. Skeletal muscle is muscle that you can consciously control. When your brain tells a muscle to contract, it shortens, pulling one bone towards another across a joint.

Skeletal muscles are attached to the skeleton by tough connective tissues called tendons(see Figure above). Many skeletal muscles are attached to the ends of bones that meet at a joint. The muscles span the joint and connect the bones. When the muscles contract, they pull on the bones, causing them to move.
