Which joint has sacrificed stability to provide freedom of movement?
the shoulder
What features of the hip joint are also features of the shoulder joint?
Both joints are enarthrodial (ball and socket joints), but the hip is more stable than the shoulder. This is out of necessity because the hip must support the weight of the body, while the shoulder does not have to. The cup in the hip that the head of the femur sits in is deeper than that of the shoulder holding the head of the humerus. This means less movement for the hip, but more stability.

Why is the shoulder socket deeper than the hip socket?

What is the name of the movement the rotator cuffs allows the shoulder to make?
The rotator cuff allows the shoulder to perform movements such as rotation, abduction, and extension.
Why is the hip joint stronger than the shoulder joint?
The hip joint is a weight bearing structure and is therefore designed differently to allow controlled movement and yet retain strength and stability. The Shoulder in contrast is designed mainly for a range of movement far beyond the hip still controlled but not as stable and as strengthened as the hip
Which joint has sacrificed stability to provide great freedom of movement?
In the shoulder joint, stability has been sacrificed to provide the most freely moving joint in the body. The articulating bones provide minimal joint stability because of the size and "fit" of the articulating surfaces. The major stabilizing forces are soft tissue, in particular the tendons of the rotator cuff muscles (via muscle tone).
What type of movement is the shoulder joint?
Rotation
What three joints that facilitate shoulder movement are?
The shoulder is a single joint, your question makes no sense.
