Question

What is the difference between a ball and a socket joint?




​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Ball-and-Socket joints are the most mobile of all synovial joints. They allow the bone with the ball head to be moved freely in all planes, Whereas hinge joints allow restricted movements in one plane only. They are capable of bearing heavy loads.

Ball-and-socket joint, also called spheroidal joint, in vertebrate anatomy, a joint in which the rounded surface of a bone moves within a depression on another bone, allowing greater freedom of movement than any other kind of joint.
