The hip joint is an example of a ball and socket joint in the human body. The rounded head of the femur (thigh bone) fits into the cup-shaped socket of the acetabulum in the pelvis, allowing for a wide range of movement. This joint provides stability and mobility for activities like walking, running, and jumping.
