Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Enarthrodial joints, also known as multiaxial ball and socket joints, are a type of joint that has several axes of motion. Multiaxial refers to the presence of numerous axes. These joints, which include the shoulder and hip in humans, have a larger range of motion than other joints.

Detailed explanation-2: -Movements. The ball and socket configuration allows for movement with 3 degrees of freedom, which is more than any other type of synovial joint. The depth of the cup and any additional fibrocartilaginous labrum is the major limitation to the extent of motion allowed in any direction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ball-and-socket joints have the greatest range of motion of all synovial joints.
