Contracture develops when normally elastic connective tissue are replaced with nonelastic fibrous tissues. 
Contracture is the prolonged state of shortening or tightened tissue. Contracture develops when the normally stretchy tissues are replaced by non stretchy fiber-like tissue. This tissue makes it hard to stretch the area and prevents normal movement. It mostly occurs in the skin, the tissues underneath, and the muscles, tendons, ligaments surrounding a joint.

Muscles and human skeleton are very much connected with each other.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Muscles form one of the 5 systems of our body. They consists of both the skeletal muscles as well as the smooth muscles of our body. While the smooth muscles are the part of the organs, the skeletal muscles are attached with bones either directly attached, or they are attached with the bones by means of tendons. These muscles are formed of cells called sarcomeres and they are the structures which make the bones move. Bones ars like the rods and muscles are like hydraulics. So they are collectively called as musculoskeletal system.

Skeletal system is referred to as the collection of each and every bones of our body which is roughly 206 bones, and their organization in body helping us to stand and move.
