Statemetnt II - Correct

The smooth joint, with a hemispherical head that fits within a cuplike depression is called the ball and socket joint. This type of joint helps in rotational or circular movements (360°), as one bone is captivated into the hollow space of another bone. This is the most freely moving joint. An example of a ball and socket joint are the shoulders and hip.

Pivot joint is found in the neck.
