The joint where the humerus meets the shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint. The joint where the humerus meets the ulna (the elbow) is a hinge joint.
The hinge joint on the elbow
Two bones come together at a joint or articulation. There are many different types of joints such as the "hinge" joint, the "ball and socket" joint, the "ellipsoid" joint, and more. Prominent joints on the human body include elbows and knees.
Immovable joints and slightly movable joints are related because they are two types of joints that are functional junctions between bones.
There are not two types of pivot joints, there are two pivot joints: one between the atlas and the axis of the of the cervical vertebrae, the second is in the elbows between the radius in the ulna.
there are actually five types of joints in the human body. the two types that are most commonly referred to are the ball and socket (hips and shoulders) and the hinged (knees and elbows). the other types of joints are: immobile joints (the joining of bones in the skull); semi-mobile joints (in the ribs and vertebra, offering limited range of motion); cartilagenous joints (the joints between the vertebra in the spinal column, cartilage between the bones allows for motion) information found at infovisual.info.
There are three main types of joints, but you can select two from the three as they are all main types of joint.
Synovial joints.
There are two general types of joints, movable and immovable. Under the movable category there are four types of joints: Hinge joints: in knees and elbows Pivot joints: in neck Gliding joints: in wrists and ankles Ball-and-socket joints: in shoulders and hips

No, the humerus is a single bone.

Cartilage covers the ends of bones at joints, while a ligament is the tissue that connects two bones to form a joint.

There are six types of synovial joints in the body. They are also called freely movable joints. They consist of: ball-and-socket, hinge, pivot, saddle, ellipsoidal, and gliding. The gliding joints (carpal bones) aka planar joints (move in a plane). The ellipsoidal joints (metacarpals) aka condylar joints.
Expansion joints. Butt,lap,half-housed,mortise/tenon and mitre joints to name some common ones.
Butt joints are used in woodworking and in low voltage wiring where two wire ends are joined by a butt connector.
