How to Use Drywall Anchors
:
A drywall sleeve anchor is a plastic sleeve or insert that fits into a small, previously drilled hole in the drywall. When the provided drywall metal screw is turned into the sleeve, the sleeve expands.
:
A drywall corkscrew anchor is a large plastic or metal threaded screw-shaped insert designed to be self-drilled (no pilot hole) into the drywall. A provided metal screw is then tapped into the anchor, and it's this second screw that holds the item to the wall.
:
With a drywall wing-style anchor, the object is held firmly in place by wings that press against the back of the drywall while a flange on the front presses in the opposite direction.

Screw anchor and screw
Screw anchors are inserts, typically made from plastic, metal, or fiber, which enable the attachment of screws into brittle materials — such as masonry or dry wall.

Thank you Phil. However, I found the term 'screw anchor' in several dictionaries. Not sure if it's better to specify what the anchor relates to? https://www.wordsense.eu/screw_anchor/

In North America, the anchor is also called a Fischer plug, because Fischer is one of the major producers.

ground anchor and screw
In your case they're using a screw. Normally I would expect a bolt.
