Examples of sutures as joints are found in the bone that make up the cranium which covers the brain. There are 22 bones that form the cranium. There are 11 sutures. The joint is slightly moveable and that gives some flexibility to the cranium. This type of joint is called a synarthrosis.
Suture joint ie skull sections are fused with suture joints
No, the intermaxillary suture is different from the medial palatine suture. The intermaxillary suture refers to the joint between the two maxillary bones in the midline of the skull. On the other hand, the medial palatine suture is the joint between the two palatine bones in the midline of the hard palate.
A suture/synarthrosis/synovial is the group of joint terms listed above that is not correctly matched.
The name of the joint should be primary cartilage joint as per my opinion. Others may say that it is the suture type of joint.
In babies the skull joint is the fontanel (fontanelle) which helps in birth due to its flexibility but in the adult the skull joint is a fixed joint or a synarthrotic joint (immovable) called a suture.
A suture is an example of an immovable joint called a synarthrosis.

suture joint
A joint that does not allow any movement is called a synarthrosis joint. This type of joint can be found in the skull, where two bones have a suture line that is immovable. An example is the joint between the two parietal bones of the skull.

A suture joint is classified as a synarthrosis, which means it is functionally immobile. These joints are formed by fibrous tissue and allow for very little movement, providing stability and protection to the structures they connect. They are commonly found in the skull where they help to absorb shock and protect the brain.
The lambdoid suture articulates with the parietal and occipital bone of the skull. Joint is another name for suture when talking about 2 bones connecting in skull.
Yes, the lambdoidal suture is an immovable fibrous joint in the human skull. It connects the parietal bones to the occipital bone and provides stability and protection to the brain.
