Shoulder
Well, from my knowledge, your wrist and your neck can do that if I'm understanding you right. Try to rephrase that. I'm not exacly sure what you mean! beachball45 shoulder It is actually the ball and socket joint which can move 360 degrees.
The screw joint has one degree of freedom. They supply only single-axis translation, commonly by use of a threaded shaft. You can also consider the single degree of freedom to be the rotation of the screw. The important thing is the rotation and the translation are related by a function (the pitch of the screw), so only one of them can be independent. That gives you one degree of freedom.
A pivot joint allows rotation around a single axis, like the rotation of the forearm. A ball and socket joint allows for movement in multiple directions, such as the shoulder joint which can move in all directions.
Technically, you can't, ONLY a Mantis and an Owl (I Think) can turn their heads 360 degrees, So basically, No. -Answered by Dawid.
The pivot joint is the only joint that allows rotation. It consists of a rounded or pointed surface of one bone that fits into a ring or notch of another bone, allowing the bones to rotate around each other.
The only pivot joint in your body is between your cranium and spinal column. The toes are all sliding joints.
The five main muscle movements are flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. Flexion is bending a joint or reducing the angle between bones, while extension is straightening a joint to increase the angle. Abduction involves moving a body part away from the midline, and adduction is bringing it back toward the midline. Rotation involves pivoting a body part around its axis.
Any sport that involves gripping. For example, holding a tennis racket or golf club would require the use of the saddle joint. The only saddle joints in your body are in your thumbs. The bones in a saddle joint can rock back and forth and from side to side, but they have limited rotation.
The radioulnar joint allows for rotation of the wrist. This joint is formed by the articulation of the radius and ulna bones in the forearm. Rotation at this joint is responsible for movements like pronation and supination of the hand.
saddle joint
Another saddle joint in the body is the joint between the sternum (breastbone) and the clavicle (collarbone). This joint allows for a wide range of movement, including elevation and depression of the shoulder girdle.
