shoulder joint is a compound joint bcoz it si made of 3/ more bones and fuction as a single anatomical unit.
The 2nd through 5th digits on both hands have 3 bones (proximal, middle and distal phalanges) and 3 joints, including the metacarpophalangeal, proximal and distal interphalangeal joints. The 1st digit, however, only has 2 bones and 2 joints.
The sequence from least moveable joint to most: Suture, Syndesmoses, Saddle, Ball-in-Socket Sutures are fibrous joints that only occur between bones of the skull; a syndesmoses is also a fibrous joint in which there is a greater distance between the articulating surfaces and ligaments connect them; saddle joint is a triaxial joint and can move only in 3 planes of motion; the ball-in-socket joint is also triaxial and can actually produce as much movement as the saddle joint.

Whenever you need to properly describe a joint, either for studying or for an assignment, it's important to mention the following details:name(s) of the jointarticulating bonestype of joint/joint classificationmovements providedligaments involvedother detailsExample: The shoulder joint(1) The humeroscapular joint or shoulder joint is the articulation between (2) the head of the humerus and the glenoid cavity of the scapula. It is a (3) ball-and-socket synovial joint which provides (4) triaxial movement and circumduction. (5) The coracohumeral, glenohumeral and tranverse humeral ligaments are involved.(6) The shoulder joint is the point of attachment of the upper limbs/arms to the body. The rotator cuff helps to stabilize and strengthen the joint.Joints occur wherever two bones meet.

The human shoulder is a joint consisting of bones, muscles, and ligaments. The two shoulders are located beneath the head connecting the arm and the chest. Each shoulder consists of 2 bones, the clavicle and the scapula, and collectively both shoulders account for 4 bones in the body.
The medical term used is talocrural region. This refers to the area where the foot and leg meet and it consists of 3 different joints.
There are three types of joints in your body. You have fibrous, cartilaginous and synovial types of joints in your body. You have fibrous type of joint between, say the bones on the top of skull, between the teeth and teeth bearing bones and lower end of tibia and fibula bones. You have cartilaginous type of joints between epiphysis and diaphysis of the long bones. You have the same type of joint between the vertebrae and at pubic symphysis. You have synovial type of joints at shoulder and hip joints. Also at elbow and knee joints. All movable joints fall under this category.
The tarsal bones are the bone of the ankle, heel and upper foot. Technically the ankle joint is the connection between the tibia and fibula (leg bones) and the talus, or ankle bone.

Upper arm: Humerus = 1 Forearm: Radius and ulna = 2 Wrist (carpal bones): Scaphoid, Lunate, Triquetrum, Pisiform, Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate, Hamate = 8 Metacarpals: 5 Phalangies: 14 (3 in every finger but only 2 in thumb) A grand total of 30!
There is no joint with the ankle. The joint is the ankle.There are three bones that make up the ankle joint. The joint of the ankle is made up of the Tibia and Fibula bones descending from the lower leg, and the Talus Tarsal bone of the upper foot/ankle.
