A ball and socket joint is literally a ball an socket. It allows 360 degrees rotation. An example is your arm. There is a saying-"I pulled my arm out of my socket." This basically says you pulled the top of your humerous (your upper arm) out of the joint where the ball fits in the socket. This injury can be easily fixed by popping the ball back in the socket. I am a science major 11 year old. Thank you for your time. I hope this answers your question.
Circumduction is a combination of flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction commonly seen in ball-and-socket joints such as the shoulder.
Circumduction
flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, hoizontal abduction/extention, internal rotation, external rotation, circumduction, adduction/flexion

The glenohumeral joint is commonly known as the shoulder joint it is not a muscle. It acts functionally as a diarthrosis and multiaxial joint.It is the most moveable joint in the body.Flexion and extension of the shoulder joint in the (sagittal plane).Abduction and adduction of the shoulder (frontal plane).Horizontal abduction and horizontal adduction of the shoulder (transverse plane).Medial and lateral rotation of shoulder (also known as internal and external rotation).Circumduction of the shoulder (a combination of flexion/extension and abduction/adduction).
The four synovial joints are: Flexion, Extension, Abduction and Adduction.
flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, circumduction, rotation, pronation, supination, inversion, eversion, dorsiflexion, plantar flexion, and opposition.
The six primary movements that occur at the joints between body segments are flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, rotation, and circumduction. Flexion is the bending movement that decreases the angle between body parts, while extension is the opposite movement that increases the angle. Abduction is the movement away from the midline of the body, while adduction is the movement toward the midline. Rotation involves the turning or twisting movement, and circumduction is a combination of flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction that creates a circular movement.

The shoulder can perform several movements, including flexion (raising the arm forward), extension (bringing the arm backward), abduction (lifting the arm to the side), adduction (bringing the arm back to the body), internal rotation (rotating the arm inwards), and external rotation (rotating the arm outwards).
