The point of attachment of a muscle by means of a tendon to the stationary bone is called?
The point of attachment of a muscle by means of a tendon to the stationary bone is called the origin.
What is the end of the muscle that is attached to the movable bone and moves when a skeletal muscle contracts?
Insertion point, which most probably is a tendon.
A bone imbedded in a tendon is called what bone?
A sesamoid bone. This type of bone is found embedded within a tendon or a muscle, typically where it passes over a joint, to protect the tendon from excessive wear and pressure. An example of a sesamoid bone is the patella, embedded within the patellar tendon.
Define the attachment points of muscle to bone?
The attachment points of muscles to bones are called tendons. Tendons are tough, fibrous tissues that connect muscle to bone and allow the muscle to exert force on the bone, enabling movement. The point of attachment on the bone is typically referred to as the insertion point, while the point on the muscle where the tendon originates is called the origin.
What is the attachment to the stationary bone?
Alright, now that the riff-raff is outta the way - Origin is the attachment of a muscle (tendon) that is stationary. Insertion is at the other end of the muscle that is attached to a movable bone, also with a tendon. Hoped that helps.
Your leg's muscle got hurt after 8 leeches sucked at a point of 2cm radius just above your ankle what's wrong with your leg?

What is the stationary end when a muscle contracts?
A muscle attaches to a bone at two points the origin and insertion. The origin is the immovable (stationary) point. The insertion is the movable point. The insertion always moves towards the origin.Fibrous joint? The definition: consists of two bones that are united by fibrous tissue and exhibit little or no movement.
The more moveable attachment point of a muscle is called the?
The origin is the "immovable" point of attachment of a muscle to a bone.
What is the name given to the point where the tendon inserts into the bone and will not move the bone when the muscle that it is connected to contracts?
The two or more points of a muscle attachment are called its origin point and its insertion point, insertion usually being farther away from the center of the body. Such as the bicep its origin point is at the ball of the humorous and its insertion point is at the ulna.

What is the stationary point to which a muscle attaches to the body known as?
Ligaments attach bone to bone. Tendons attach muscles to bone.No, the origin is the attachment of a muscle to a stationary bone. You may have commonly heard of this as a "fixed end".
What factors affect muscle tone?
By constant low-level asychronous stimulation producing minute contraction of random motor units.
