Question
Chapter 10, Problem 11RQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
1. The differences between tendon, aponeurosis, and fleshy attachment.
2. The definition of origin and insertion, along with their differences.
Introduction:
The body is comprised of four types of tissues, namely epithelial tissue, connective tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. Muscle connects with the bone through direct or indirect attachment to bring about their movement. The event of muscle contraction produces a pulling force that moves the attached bone.
