Of course as water seeks its own level thus the toilet is NOT effected by a fixture above it. Unless the clog is in the main pipe and not in the sink itself. You can generally tell if this is the case if other items such as the bathtub are seemingly clogged as well.

What is wrong if the sink and the bathtub will drain but the toilet wont flush?

The toilet itself is plugged or the pipe from the toilet to the drain is plugged. It may be that the tub and sink have their own drain pipe that may connect to the main away from the toilet drain. Plunge the toilet or sometimes if you fill a 5 gallon bucket with water and pour it into the toilet as fast as it will take it, that will flush out the line. It is a greater amount of water all at once an forces out what the clog is.
