The main function of the tendons is to connect the muscles to the bones. In this way, it helps in the balance of the body and in the development of movements, distributing the forces in the muscles.

As it pulls the connecting bone with the muscle, the tendon creates the movement in order to transmit the force of the contraction to the bone.
