Summary Introduction

To determine:

The three skull sutures that are visible from the superior view of the skull and the type of bone that articulates at the sutures.

The sutures are the immovable joints that form the boundaries between the cranial bones. The presence of dense connective tissue seals cranial bones firmly together at a suture. Skull contains numerous sutures, and each one of them consists of a specific name. For example the occipitomastoid suture connects the occipital bone with the portion of the temporal bone that house the mastoid process.
