Muscle Origin

Term Category: Anatomy

The Origin of a Muscle is the attachment point where the muscle connects to a bone. When a muscle contracts the muscle insertion moves towards the origin and the origin does not move. Typically, but not always, the origin is located nearest to the center of the body.
