What is the less fixed attachment of a muscle to the bone called?

Origin
Insertion
Ligament
Tendon

The correct answer is: Insertion

The insertion refers to the less fixed attachment of a muscle to a bone. This is where the muscle moves when it contracts. The origin, on the other hand, is the more fixed attachment where the muscle originates from. Ligaments and tendons are not related to muscle attachments as they serve different functions in the body. Ligaments connect bones to other bones, while tendons connect muscles to bones. So, options A, C, and D are incorrect in the context of muscle attachment.
