The "sutures" are fibrous (immovable) joints between the plates of the skull, which must expand apart with age.
suturesutureThe part of the skull that is a example of an immovable fibrous joint would be a suture.
The most common example of immovable joints are found in the sutures of the adult skull. The teeth in their sockets form immovable joints as well. The growth plates of children's long bones are immovable joints. The joint between the first rib and the breastbone is also an immovable joint.
A fibrous joint, also known as a synarthrosis, is a type of joint found between immovable bones. These joints are held together by fibrous connective tissue, allowing for minimal to no movement between the bones. Examples of fibrous joints include sutures in the skull and syndesmoses in the lower leg.
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.
These are types of functions of the joints. The amphiathrotic joint is slightly moveable, the joints between the vertebra for example. The synathrotic joint is immovable, the sutures of the skull for example.

A fibrous joint is an immovable joint. An example would be the bones in the skull.
An immovable joint. (sutures joining the bones of the skull)
A type of joint that is immovable is called a synarthrotic joint. An example would be the sutures between the cranial bones.
Immovable joints allow no movement because the bones at these joints are held securely together by dense collagen. The bones of the skull are connected by immovable joints. Immovable joints are called suture joints.
The most common example of immovable joints are found in the sutures of the adult skull. The teeth in their sockets form immovable joints as well. The growth plates of children's long bones are immovable joints. The joint between the first rib and the breastbone is also an immovable joint.
The bones of the cranium or the brain box are immovable. They are 8 in number.
No, some joints, such as the cranial sutures, are immovable.
A fibrous joint, also known as a synarthrosis, is a type of joint found between immovable bones. These joints are held together by fibrous connective tissue, allowing for minimal to no movement between the bones. Examples of fibrous joints include sutures in the skull and syndesmoses in the lower leg.
Immovable joint
The bones of the skull when they fuse in an adult form an immovable joint.
An immovable joint, also known as a synarthrosis, is a type of joint in the body that allows for minimal to no movement between the adjoining bones. These joints provide structure and stability rather than mobility, and are commonly found in the skull and pelvis. Examples include sutures in the skull and the joint between the two pubic bones.
