lo 5.2. what are muscle insertions? points where nerves attach to the muscle points where muscles attach to a more movable part of the skeleton points where muscles meet tendons points where muscles attach to the surrounding tissues points where muscles attach to a less movable part of the skeleton
Muscle insertions are the attachment points of muscles to the more movable part of the skeleton. Tendons connect muscles to bones, and insertions are where the muscle - tendon unit attaches to the bone that moves more during muscle contraction. Nerves attaching to muscles are related to innervation, not insertions. Muscles meeting tendons is just part of the muscle - tendon structure, and attaching to less - movable parts of the skeleton are origins rather than insertions. Attaching to surrounding tissues is not the definition of insertions.
