Answer: They are both connecting tissues but they connect different parts.

Explanation: The similarity between tendons and ligaments is that they are both connective tissues in the body and they are made of long collagen fibers that form a tough band.

The major difference between tendons and ligaments is that they connect different structures of the body. Tendons connect muscles to bones while ligaments connect bones to other bones.
