Question
**1.** Please name the specific *structural type of joint* indicated by the **red** arrow.

**2.** Please name the specific *synovial joint classification* indicated by the **blue** arrow.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The provided image is an anatomical illustration of the pelvic region. It shows a section of the human pelvis with the hip joints prominently displayed.

- The **red arrow (1)** points to the pubic symphysis, a cartilaginous joint uniting the superior rami of the left and right pubic bones.
  
- The **blue arrow (2)** indicates the hip joint, which is a ball-and-socket type of synovial joint. It connects the head of the femur to the acetabulum of the pelvis, allowing for a wide range of motion.

This diagram helps in understanding the structural characteristics and classifications of these joints.
