What kind of joint is a multiaxial joint?
A multiaxial joint is a type of synovial joint. The x-axial refers to how many planes of the movement the specific joint provides, so in the case of a multiaxial joint, that means it provides movement in many planes of movement (multiaxial usually refers to three, which can then also be stated as triaxial).

What muscles are used when doing a vertical jump?
At the ankle joint: calf - platarflexion. Anterior tibialis is inovolved in countermovement dorsiflexion. At the knee joint: quadriceps - knee extension Hamstrings are involved in the knee flextion counter movement. At the hip: hamstrings, glutes, spinal errectors - hip flexion. Hip flexors, and abdominals are involved in the initial countrer movement and the "breaking" of the hip flexion. Additional upward thrust is also provided by the shoulders during arm thrust. Hip flexors, and abdominals are involved in the initial countrer movement and the "breaking" of the hip flexion. Big toe is mostly involved in the "toe off" movement. These are the main muscles involved in movement and coutnermovements.
