ball and socket joint
Your shoulder joint allows you to raise your arm above your head.
Ball and socket
During flexion, the shoulder joint allows the arm to move forward and upward, increasing the range of motion. During extension, the shoulder joint allows the arm to move backward and downward, decreasing the range of motion.
Primarily your Hip joint with its ball and socket, supplemented by the articulations of knee and ankle.
The ball and socket joints allows flexible movement of the arm in all directions.
The ball-and-socket joint of the shoulder allows the upper arm to be raised and lowered.
A ball and socket joint allows the arms to move in a circular motion. A ball and socket joint is also called an spheroidal joint.
If the joint between your arm and shoulder was not a ball and socket joint, you could not be able to move your arm. Ball and socket joints allow you to move in most directions. Because of this, you can move your arm up, down, side to side, front and back, and around in a circle. The ball and socket joint is one of the four major kinds of movable joints. (The four major joints are ball and socket joints, gliding joints, hinge joints, and pivotal joints in case you didn't know.)
