No. Cartilage falls in the category of connective tissue, which add support to the frame of the body, including support to muscle tissue. (This is true except the case of blood, which because of its matrix of cells, is also considered connective tissue.)
No they are distinctly different from muscle tissue
Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue found in many areas in the bodies of humans and other animals, including the joints between bones, the rib cage, the ear, the nose, the bronchial tubes and the intervertebral discs. It is not as hard and rigid as bone but is stiffer and less flexible than muscle.Unlike other connective tissues, cartilage does not contain blood vessels.
A tendon (or sinew) is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that usually connects muscle to bone and is capable of withstanding tension. Tendons are similar to ligaments and fasciae as they are all made of collagen except that ligaments join one bone to another bone, and fasciae connect muscles to other muscles. Tendons and muscles work together.

Is it true that bone cartilage and tendons are muscle tissue?
No, bone, cartilage, and tendons are not muscle tissue.
What kind of tissues are Cartilage fat tendons ligaments?
Cartilage is a type of connective tissue that is flexible and rubbery, fat tissue stores energy and helps cushion and insulate the body, tendons are tough bands of connective tissue that connect muscle to bone, and ligaments are fibrous bands of connective tissue that connect bone to bone and provide stability to joints.
What is the strong tissue that attaches the muscle to the bone?
Ligaments attach muscle to bone. Tendons connect bone to bone.
What is an example of connective tissue?
Examples of connective tissues include bone, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and adipose (fat) tissue.
What organ system includes bone cartilage and tendons?
The skeletal system includes bones, cartilage, and tendons. Bones provide support and protection for the body, while cartilage acts as a cushion between bones and tendons connect muscles to bones.
The attachment of a muscle to a bone or cartilage?
I believe that is a joint.
Are tendons bone to bone or muscle to bone?
No, it is a very tough, fibrous material that connects muscle to bone.
A narrow strip of dense connective tissue that connects muscle to bone?
Tendons connect muscles to bone.
Compare and contrast tendons and ligaments?
ligaments connect bone to bone, tendons connect muscle to bone and cartilage is the semi solid bones that are present at the places where they required. For example: our external ears, nose, between 2 joints cartilage is present.
What part of the muscle attaches the muscle to the bone?
bones
A strong connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone?
Tendons attach muscles to bones. An example is the Achilles tendon that attaches your calf muscle (gastrocnemius) to the bones in your foot.
What is the connective tissue that attaches a muscle to a bone?
They are called tendons.
