∙ 13y agoA joints function is to hold the bones together securely but also give the rigid skeleton mobility. There are three types of joints: Fibrous Joints, Cartilaginous Joints and Synovial Joints. For the fibrous joints, irregular edges of the bones interlock and are bound tightly together by connective tissue fibers, allowing essentially no movement to occur. Cartilaginous joints the bone ends are connected by cartilage so it's slightly movable. Synovial Joints are those in which the articulating bone ends are separated by a joint cavity containing synovial fluid. Therefore, synovial joints have much more freedom or flexibility than the other two joints types allowing a great range of movement.

So what is the greatest range of motion?
The type joint that allows the greatest degree of movement is the joint?
The ball-and-socket joint allows the greatest amount of movement, like the shoulder or hip.
What movement does the shoulder joint allow?
The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint, which is the type that allows the greatest range of movement. it allows the arm to move forward and backward (as when you swing your arms while walking); abduction and adduction (as in jumping jacks); and many intermediate movements.
What is the amount of movement you can make at a joint?
It depends on the joint. The hip joint, for instance, has far more range of motion than the knee joint.
Which joints that permit the widest range of movement?
ball -and-socket joints. Of all the joints, in our bodies, these permit the widest range of movements.
What injury could occur if a joint is forced beyond its normal range of movement?
Is the dislocation of the bone may occur!

Ball-and-socket joint--shoulder and hip, for example. They come closest to a 360-degree range of movement.
