The shoulder joint is a ball-and-socket joint, where the rounded head of the humerus bone articulates with the shallow socket of the scapula. This joint allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.
The scapula articulates with the humerus to form the ball and socket joint at the shoulder, known as the glenohumeral joint. This joint allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.

No; the elbow has a hinge joint, but does not have a ball and socket joint.
The head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula to form a ball-and-socket joint known as the shoulder joint. This joint allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.
The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint, in which the ball at the end of the humerus attaches to the socket in the scapula, while the knee is a plane joint, where the patella slides above the femur, tibia, and fibula.
