No, an axis is not a pivot joint. An axis is an imaginary line around which a joint rotates, while a pivot joint is a specific type of joint that allows for rotation around a central point, like the joint in the neck that allows the head to rotate side to side.
The glenohumeral joint is the main joint of the shoulder, where the head of the humerus (upper arm bone) articulates with the socket of the scapula (shoulder blade). It is a ball-and-socket joint that allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.
The type of joint that allows for turning movements is called a pivot joint. An example of a pivot joint is the atlantoaxial joint between the first and second cervical vertebrae, which enables the head to rotate. Another example is the proximal radioulnar joint, which allows for the rotation of the forearm. These joints facilitate rotational motion around a single axis.
Atlantoaxial - synovial; pivotThe joint between the atlas and axis is called the atlanto-axial joint. It is comprised of the anterior portion of the ring of C1 and the odontoid process (or dens) of C2. This joint allows for about 50 percent of the side to side rotation of the head.*a.k.a. Pivot Synovial JointThe joint that is located between the atlas and the axis vertebrae is the pivot joint. This is due to the fact that the axis (2nd vertebra) protrudes through the vertebral foramen and this allows you to turn your head side to side. Try and shake your head "no," this is due to the pivot joint of the two vertebrae! this joint also known as atoaxoid jointpivotit is called the atlanto-axial jointThe joint between atlas and axis is called the atloaxoid joint. This joint is a pivot joint that allows the head to turn from side to side.

pivot joint
It's called the pivot joint. It allows your head to move from side to side.
The joint that allows you to turn your head from side to side is the atlanto-axial joint, formed between the first and second cervical vertebrae (C1 and C2). This joint enables the rotation of the head without moving the entire spine.
This joint forms a pivot motion. When you turn backwards rapidly to open a door or when a dancer pivots on one foot these are the motions a pivot allows. In the joint between C1 and C2, this pivot allows you to turn your head to the left and to the right.

The cervical(neck) vertebrae. The joint formed by C1 and C2, also known as the atlas and axis.
its not any joint, its the size of a penis(for females)/ yummyness of the vagina (for males) which causes the head of opposite sex move their head (pleasurably aroused ofcourse).
There are many types of joints. One is the ball and socket joint. It allows us to swing our arms in circles. Second is the hinge joint. It is found in our knee. It works like the hinge on a door. It allows our leg to move back and forth in one direction.
The head of the humerus articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula to form a ball-and-socket joint known as the shoulder joint. This joint allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.
