Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The insertion is the point of attachment. It is that part of the body which acts as the distal end of the attachment of a muscle to a bone. The insertion has the ability to be moved by the muscle.

Detailed explanation-2: -A muscle has two ends that each attach to bone: the muscle’s origin and the muscle’s insertion. At both of these points, tendons attach the muscle to bone.
