Where does the muscle attach to the bone?
Where a muscle attaches to a bone is at the origin and insertion points. The origin is the immovable (or slightly moveable) attachment point and the the insertion is the movable attachment point. During contraction the insertion moves towards the origin. HOW a muscle attaches to a bone is through tendons.
What is the difference between the origin and the insertion of the muscle?
The origin of a muscle is where the muscle starts ("the starting point"). The insertion of a muscle is where the muscle ends ("the ending point"). Also, the insertion of the muscle is what moves a lot (contrary of the origin where the muscle mostly stays stationary).
