The ball and socket joint allows free movement in all directions. If the neck had this type of joint, the spinal cord would not have the support and protection it would need.
Ball and socket -Arm and shoulder Pivotal joint-neck and head Hinge joint-toes Gliding joints-between vertebrae Ellipsoid joint- radiocarpal joint Saddle joint- First Carpometacarpal
Some examples are the shoulder and the hip.
Ball and SocketHingePivotGlidingThere are more than three if I remember right. The joints are: ball and socket, hinge, saddle, and gliding joints.There are actually 6 types of joints in the body Hinge joints-your elbows Saddle joints-your thumb Ball and socket-your hips Pivot joints-your neck Gliding joints-your ankles Immovable joints- your skull
Joints are anywhere the bones in the skeleton are connected in a way that allow them to move separately:The knee, ankle and elbow are all hinges. The base of the skull is a fixed joint. The neck is a pivot joint. Fingers have hinge joints, the thumb is a ball-and-socket along with the shoulder and hips.The thumb joint is a saddle joint, much like a ball and socket joint.
None,they are neck vertebrae. Ball in Socket joints are used in your shoulder. Hinge jonts are used n your arm
feamer head and neck
You will gets paralized

I believe there are about five. They are the: Fixed Joint ( Skull ) Gliding Joint ( Wrist ) Ball- and - Socket joint ( Shoulder ) Hinge Joint ( Knee ) And the Pivot ( Neck ).

The five freely movable joints are, Ball & socket- Shoulder, hip hinge joint- Knee, elbow, fingers, toes, jaw gliding- wrist, ankle, vertebrae pivot- neck saddle- carpometacarpal of thumb there are actually 6 !!! there is the condyloid joint as well which is found in the wrist
None,they are neck vertebrae. Ball in Socket joints are used in your shoulder. Hinge jonts are used n your arm
Ball and socket joints, such as the hips and shoulder joints, can move in all directions.
Joints are essential for enabling movement in the body. There are several types of joints that facilitate different types of movement: **Hinge Joints**: These joints enable movement in one direction, similar to a hinge on a door. Examples include the elbow and knee joints, which allow flexion (bending) and extension (straightening) movements. *Ball-and-Socket Joints*: These joints provide a wide range of motion in multiple directions. The spherical end of one bone fits into a socket-like structure of another bone. The shoulder and hip joints are examples of ball-and-socket joints. *Pivot Joints*: These joints allow rotational movement around a central axis. An example is the joint between the first and second vertebrae of the neck (atlas and axis), which allows the head to rotate from side to side. *Gliding Joints*: These joints allow bones to slide past each other in various directions. They are found in the wrists and ankles, facilitating movements like side-to-side and back-and-forth. *Saddle Joints*: These joints allow movement similar to a rider sitting in a saddle. The joint between the thumb and the wrist is an example of a saddle joint, enabling thumb movements in different planes. *Condyloid Joints*: These joints permit movement in two planes, such as bending and straightening as well as side-to-side movements. The wrist joint is an example of a condyloid joint. *Fixed (or Immovable) Joints*: Some joints are fused together and do not allow movement. These joints provide stability and support to certain structures, like the sutures between skull bones. Each type of joint contributes to the body's overall ability to move and perform various activities. The specific structure and function of each joint determine the range of motion and flexibility in different parts of the body.
Part of the elbow is a ball and socket joint, but the elbow is made up of three different kinds of joint.The first joint is between the Humerus (bone of the upper arm) and the Ulna (the larger of the two forearm bones) which is a Hinge Joint. Hinge joints allow for movement along one plane. In the arm, this allows the movement used when a person touches their shoulder with the hand of the same arm.The second joint is between the Humerus and the Radius (the smaller of the two forearm bones) and this is a ball and socket joint.The third joint is between the Radius and the Ulna and this is a pivot joint. A pivot joint allows rotation of a joint, in the arm this allows the movement used when turning the palms upwards or downwards.
