Ligaments and tendons are soft collagenous tissues. Ligaments connect bone to bone and tendons connect muscles to bone. Ligaments and tendons play a significant role in musculoskeletal biomechanics.
Can Ants See. Some can and some can't. There are some kinds of ants which have no eyes. Most of them do have eyes, though they may be such simple ones that they only detect the presence or absence of light and possibly its color, but do not form an image. Ants that have compound eyes can form an image, but it is a much grainier one than we see, like a poor newspaper photograph.
