How Insertion Sort Works:
- Insertion sort builds a sorted array one element at a time
- For each element, it finds the correct position in the already sorted portion
- Elements are shifted to make room for the new element
- Green bars represent sorted elements
- Red bar is the element being inserted
- Yellow bar is the element being compared
