Gomphosis
ball and socket
Ankle is a hinge joint. As it has 'pulley' shaped articular surfaces. Strong medial and lateral ligaments. And permits only two types of movements. Dorsiflexion and planter flex-ion. Movements are allowed in one plane around single axis.
The joint in your shoulder is a Ball & Socket Joint.
The glenohumeral joint is a ball-and socket joint that is formed between two bones, the humerus and the scapula. The humerus head, acting as the ball, fits into the end of the scapula known as the glenoid, the socket.
The head of the femur articulates with the os coxa (pelvis) at the acetabulum. The acetabulum is the rounded socket that the head of the femur fits into. It also allows sliding of the pelvic bones and rotation. This joint is a synovial joint and is an example of a "ball-and-socket" joint.
