Geometric intuition of isolated and embedded prime of a module

In this wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associated_prime

In a commutative ring R, minimal elements in $\text{Ass}(M)$ (with respect to the set-theoretic inclusion) are called isolated primes while the rest of the associated primes (i.e., those properly containing associated primes) are called embedded primes.

Is there any geometric way of thinking about this "isolated and embedded prime"? To which concept do they relate in algebraic geometry?
