The place where this muscle connects to the other bone - the bone being moved TOWARD the upper arm - is known as the _____________. Deltoid Agonist Insertion Action

Ferredoxin4:

I believe it's deltoid muscle, but the wording of this question is really, really bad.

Gdeinward:

I am pretty sure its the agonist muscle.

Gdeinward:

the deltoid is a shoulder muscle.

Gdeinward:

I dont get your point.

Ferredoxin4:

It's not talking about the location of the muscle, but it's talking about the pair movement. Agonist cause muscles to move, such as our biceps, while antagonists will allow them to return to the relaxing stage, such as the triceps. The question says that it's the place where the muscle connects to the other bone, so it's between the origin or insertion. The answer is insertion. I apologize if I'm a bit late. The insertion joins a moving bone while the origin joins the stationary one.
