Gliding joint
Its a question of Medical Anatomy (human anatomy), but not in the category of MEDICAL TERMINOLOGY. To the author: put your questions in the proper place at proper category! answer: Clavicula (clavicle in eng.) meets with Scapula at Shoulder joint
The acromioclavicular joint is a plane, or gliding, joint.
Gliding Joint - The joining of two flat bones that slide against one another forms a gliding joint, or plane joint. This type of joint doesn't allow much motion. The connection between your shoulder blade (scapula) and collar bone (clavicle) is a gliding joint.
This is called as elbow joint. It is a synovial type of joint. It is actually a joint between humerus and ulna mainly. The radius takes part in the joint passively. This is hinge variety of joint.
Sychondrosis (a type of hyaline cartillage) is the joint between the first rib and the sternum, otherwise referred to as the first sternocostal joint. this joint type is also found in the epiphyseal plates of long bones prior to fusion.
A ball-and-socket joint (multiaxial) connects the two bones.
The synovial joint between the scapula and the humerus is a ball-and-socket joint. This joint allows for a wide range of motion, including rotation and circumduction of the arm. It is known as the glenohumeral joint.
The mandible is found in the jaw and is part of the skull so can be classed as a flat bone but has also been described as irregular due to the shape. The clavicle is a flat bone and supports the shoulder but again other sources have described it as a short bone. Conflicting evidence for each sorry.
One type is a ball and socket joint that connects your arm and shoulder
Shoulder joint is a very special type of joint. In this scapula bone is not attached to thorax by any bony attachment, except through clavicle bone. Here The medial border of scapula is pushed inside the sheet of muscle. You call them rhomboid-us major and minor on one hand and serratus anterior on other hand. The trapezius and deltoid muscles are interrupted by acromial process of scapula. So that way shoulder has only single bony attachment with the trunk.
