Skeletal muscles generally attach at two points, called the ________________ and ___________________. The _______________ is the attachment to a joint that is usually at the proximal end of a bone, and the ________________ is at the distal end of a joint.
Two points that are attached are the origin and insertion. The origin is the attachment joint that is usually at the proximal end of a bone, and the insertion is at the distal end of a joint.
