The term that means nearest the point of attachment or origin is "proximal." This term is commonly used in anatomy to describe the location of structures relative to the trunk of the body or the point of attachment of a limb. For example, the shoulder is proximal to the elbow.

What does 00 means on a graph?
It marks the origin - the point where the horizontal and vertical axes cross.
Is a 35 miles radius mean there and back?
It means 35 miles from the point of origin - NOT there and back.
What is 68.132 rounded to the nearest tenth?
68.1
Point of intersection for the axes?
You're thinking of the origin. The origin is the point (0,0)
Does the origin of an object always have to be at zero on a number line or x-y plane?
The word "origin" means the point (0, 0) on the x-y plane. The meaning of the phrase "origin of an object" is much less certain.
What is the medical term meaning nearest the point of attachment?
Proximal is the medical term meaning nearest the point of attachment.
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.
Close to the origin of the body part or point of attachment of a limb to the body trunk?
This term refers to anatomical structures that are located near the center of the body or the point where a limb attaches to the trunk. It is often used to describe the position of organs, bones, muscles, or other body parts.
What is the medical term meaning nearest the point of origin?
Proximal means nearer the point of origin.
What anatomical direction is distal?
Distal refers to 'further from the attachment point'. For example, the ankle is distal to the knee.
What term means furthest from the point of attachment?
The term you are looking for is "distal." It is used in anatomy to describe a body part that is farthest from the point of attachment or origin.
The less movable attachment point of a muscle is called the?
The less movable attachment point of a muscle is called the origin. This is typically the point of attachment that remains relatively fixed during muscle contraction, while the other end, known as the insertion, moves towards the origin.
What point of attachment does not move when a muscle contracts?
Origin
What is the attachment of the muscle of the least mobile point?
Origin
Name the two points of attachment for the skeletal muscle?
The two attachment points are the origin and insertion. The origin is the immovable (or slightly moveable point. The insertion is the movable point. The insertion always moves towards the origin.
What is more proximal the insertion or the origin for the attachment of the muscles in the chicken wing?
The origin is more proximal than the insertion for the attachment of muscles in the chicken wing. The origin is the fixed point of attachment, typically closer to the center of the body or the point of reference, while the insertion is the movable point of attachment, typically further away from the center of the body.
Points of muscle attachment are known as the?
Origin and Insertion One of the points of attachment is the ORIGIN (typically the non-moving point of attachment). The other point of attachment is the INSERTION (typically the moving point of attachment). For example - when the brachialis muscle (located on the upper arm) contracts - it shortens the distance between the origin (on the humerus - the upper arm bone and the insertion (on the radius - the forearm bone). The humerus does not move, but the radius does move - it moves closer to the humerus.
