Fontanels
Indentations between the bones of the fetal skull
It is called a true cleft pallate.
The fetal skeleton is much softer, it has far more bones which fuse by adulthood. also the proporions are much more different, the skull of a fetus is much big in comparison to its body. obviously the fetal skeleton is much much smaller and is more fraile.as development of the facial area of a human develop, the head becomes much less round (so a fetal skeleton would have a rounder head). the face also becomes more defined and features more noticable. I hope this helps.
ossification centers
fontanellesthe membrane filled areas situated in between the bones present in the vault of the neonatal skull are called fontanelles.there are six fontanelles present at the time of birth. the two frontal bones are separated by the metopic suture.six fontanelles are :anterior fontanelle.posterior fontanelle.a pair of anterolateral fontanelles.a pair of posteriolateral fontanelles.the fontanelles help moulding of the foetal head during child birth.

the fetal bones are much more delicate than the adult

Yes.

because fetal bones fuse together
no!
A fetal chick grows into a chicken, whereas a fetal human grows into a human.
One of the membranous intervals between the uncompleted angles of the parietal and neighboring bones of a fetal or young skull; so called because it exhibits a rhythmical pulsation.
It is called a true cleft pallate.
The ossa coxae (containing the ililum, ishium, and pubic bones) are not fused in a fetal skeleton like in an adult human.
There are three types of ligaments.Articular ligaments: Fibrous tissue that connects bones to other bones. They are sometimes called "articular larua, "fibrous ligaments", or "true ligaments".Peritoneal ligaments: A fold of peritoneum or other membranes.Fetal remnant ligaments: The remnants of a tubular structure from the fetal period of life.The first term is the one most commonly intended when using the word "ligament". This article briefly handles peritoneal and fetal remnant ligaments before focusing on articular legments
