What is the difference among the three joints?
Well there hinge joints such as the jaw joint and ball and sock joints such as the hip joint or shoulder joint. Ball and socket joints allow the hinged appendage to move in many more directions than a hinge.

How do the different kinds of joints help with movement?
There are three different categories of joints. They are: synarthrotic, amphiarthrotic, and diarthrotic.The synarthrotic joints are mostly immovable and contain cartilage between the bones. An example of these are the suture joints between the cranial bones. Amphiarthrotic joints are a bit more movable and are made of reticular fibers such as those found in the intervertebral discs. The diarthrotic joints are also called synovial joints, or freely moving joints, and comprise the largest group of joints in the human body. These joints are responsible for the overall movement of the body, like the arms and the legs.
