What are 8 joints in your body?

What features of the hip joint are also features of the shoulder joint?
Both joints are enarthrodial (ball and socket joints), but the hip is more stable than the shoulder. This is out of necessity because the hip must support the weight of the body, while the shoulder does not have to. The cup in the hip that the head of the femur sits in is deeper than that of the shoulder holding the head of the humerus. This means less movement for the hip, but more stability.
What are the differences in the 5 movable joints?
Ball-and-socket joints allow movement in all directions. They are the hip and shoulder joints. Hinge joints allow movement in one direction only. They are elbow, knee, and finger joints. A pivot joint allows partial rotation of the head. It is located between the first two vertebrae in the neck. Gliding joints, where the bones move a short distance sliding against each other, are in the wrist and ankle.
What is the difference between fixed slightly moveable joints and synovial joints?
Fixed Joint is like your Cranium (head) as it doesnt move. Slightly Moveable is like your Spine (Cartliginous) as it moves slightly Synovial (Freely Moveable) Joints are all your other joints like your shoulder/knee/elbow/hip.... They consist of 4 Main Types Ball & Socket/ Hinge/ Pivot and Gliding
Are there any faults or joints at flamborough head?
Flambrough Head is a chalk headland with sheer white cliffs. Without looking at a Geological Map of the area I can not tell you if there are any faults running through it (but it is likely) but the Chalk rock will be jointed. I believe there are stacks and caves associated with the headland and these are probably associated with the majour joints (perhaps faults).
