The sequence from least moveable joint to most: Suture, Syndesmoses, Saddle, Ball-in-Socket Sutures are fibrous joints that only occur between bones of the skull; a syndesmoses is also a fibrous joint in which there is a greater distance between the articulating surfaces and ligaments connect them; saddle joint is a triaxial joint and can move only in 3 planes of motion; the ball-in-socket joint is also triaxial and can actually produce as much movement as the saddle joint.

What are the 4 kind of movable joints . Describe the type of movement each joint allows?
The four kinds of movable joints are hinge joint, ball-and-socket, pivot joint, and gliding joint.Movable joint: allows forward or backward.Ball-and-socket joint: allows the greatest range of motion.Pivot joint: allows one bone to rotate around another.Gliding joint: allows one bone to slide over another.~ A. K. =)
What is an example for a movable gliding joint?

There are six types of synovial joints in the body. They are also called freely movable joints. They consist of: ball-and-socket, hinge, pivot, saddle, ellipsoidal, and gliding. The gliding joints (carpal bones) aka planar joints (move in a plane). The ellipsoidal joints (metacarpals) aka condylar joints.
Is a knuckle a gliding or pivot or hinge or ball and socket or immovable?
The knuckle is actually a different type of movable joint called condyloid. It moves somewhat similar to a joystick.
