∙ 15y agoThe 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.

A syndesmosis joint is a type of slightly movable joint (amphiarthrosis) characterized by fibrous connective tissue that forms an interosseus membrane. An example would be the distal articulation of the tibia and fibula.
A slightly movable joint held together by fibrous connective tissue is called a syndesmosis joint. This type of joint allows for a small amount of movement between the bones it connects, such as the joints between the tibia and fibula in the lower leg.
movable joints allow the body to make a wide range of movements 4 types of movable joints are .hinge joint .ball-and-socket joint .pivot joint .gliding joint
ball-and-socket joints
An immovable joint cannot move or can barely move.A movable joint can move. Here are some joints that are movable joints. The ball and socket joint, hinge joint, gliding joint, and the pivot joint.

A syndesmosis joint is a type of slightly movable joint (amphiarthrosis) characterized by fibrous connective tissue that forms an interosseus membrane. An example would be the distal articulation of the tibia and fibula.
Hinge Joint, Ball and Socket Joint, Pivot Joint, and Gliding Joint are all the movable joints
Ball and socket joint: Found in the hip and shoulder, allowing for a wide range of motion. Hinge joint: Found in the elbow and knee, enabling movement in one plane. Pivot joint: Found in the neck (atlas and axis vertebrae), allowing for rotational movement. Gliding joint: Found in the carpals of the wrist and tarsals of the ankle, facilitating sliding movements.
Gliding joint Ball and socket joint Pivotal joint Hinge joint
allow movement in all directions.There are 4 types of freely movable joints--ball and socket joint,hinge joint,pivot joint and gliding joint.
The two types of joints besides movable and immovable are slightly movable joints (such as cartilaginous joints) and synovial joints (such as ball-and-socket joints and hinge joints). Slightly movable joints allow for limited movement, while synovial joints are freely movable and are the most common type of joint in the body.
Fibrous joint; bone is connected by ligaments; slightly flexible (amphiarthrotic)
The four types of the movable joints are the ball and socket joint, hinge joint, pivot joint, and gliding joint.
A slightly movable joint held together by fibrous connective tissue is called a syndesmosis joint. This type of joint allows for a small amount of movement between the bones it connects, such as the joints between the tibia and fibula in the lower leg.
The six different types of joints in the body are ball and socket joints (e.g., hip and shoulder), hinge joints (e.g., knee and elbow), pivot joints (e.g., neck), ellipsoidal joints (e.g., wrist), saddle joints (e.g., thumb), and gliding joints (e.g., vertebrae). These joints allow for various types of movement and flexibility in the body.
A knuckle joint is a type of hinge joint, allowing movement in one plane like a hinge on a door. It facilitates bending and straightening movements.
