The answer is tendons that work together with the radial arteries.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2>

A tendon (also called sinew) is a collection of strong fibrous connective tissue that connects muscle tissue to bone. This network is strong enough to withstand voltage. Tendon tissue is very similar to ligaments and fascia; all three are made of collagen. Ligaments connect bones with other bones; fasciae connect muscles to muscles. Tendons and muscles work together to move the body's framework.

Radial arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood in the arms. You can feel the pulse of the radial artery by feeling the inside of the wrist under the base of the thumb.  

Muscle is a network in the human and animal body that functions as an active motion tool that moves bones. Muscles are classified into three types namely striated muscle, smooth muscle, and heart muscle. Muscles cause the movement of an organism as well as the movement of organs in that organism.

Types of Muscles

  • Striated muscle has an effective design for spontaneous movement and requires great energy. This muscle gets tired easily, which is caused by a buildup of lactic acid in its cells. Striated muscle movement comes from motor signals originating from the brain and is conscious (not reflex). This muscle is found in almost the entire external body of humans and animals.
  • Smooth muscle is a muscle found in the digestive organs and blood vessels, working with the regulation of the involuntary nervous system or autonomic nerves. Smooth muscle is formed by muscle cells formed from spindles with two tapered ends and has a single core.
  • Heart muscle is a muscle that works specifically to pump blood to the heart. This is a muscle tissue that can contract continuously without stopping. Its movement is not influenced by central nervous signals. Heart muscle can be affected by sympathetic or parasympathetic nerve interactions that slow or accelerate the rate of the heart rate, but cannot consciously control it.
