Ritz argued that the engrossed copy of the Declaration was signed by Congress on July 4, as Jefferson, Adams, and Franklin had stated, and that it was implausible that all three men had been mistaken.

The seven general types of skeletal muscle. The origin of a muscle is the bone, typically proximal, which has greater mass and is more stable during a contraction than a muscle's insertion. For example, with the latissimus dorsi muscle, the origin site is the torso, and the insertion is the arm.
The movement accomplished by a muscle when it contracts is called its action. When a muscle contracts it applies a force to one end of a bone which pivots at a joint and lifts a weight (moves a part of the body) at the other end.Although the arrangement of pivot, muscle, and weight may vary, the principle is always the same.he end of a muscle furthest from the dorsal midline, more distal or more movable is called the insertion. As the muscles are described, the origin and insertion will be identified; try not to simply memorize which is which.
