28. 1.The connections between the skull bones of adults that are immovable? SUTURES
2.separates occipital from the parietal bone? Lambdoid Suture
3.Attaches the frontal bone to the parietal bones of either sides? Coronal Suture
4.Consists of occipital, parietal, and frontal bones? The calvaria(skullcap)
5.Extends from lambdoid suture to the coronal suture, between the parietal bones? Sagital Suture
6.Forms the boundary between the temporal bone and the parietal bone? Squamous Suture
7. Are the site of articulation between the skull and first vertebrae of the neck? Occipital condyles
8. Attachment site of muscles and ligaments? Inferior and superior nuchal lines
9.Connects the cranial cavity with the vertebral canal, which is enclosed by the vertebral column.
This foramen surrounds the connection between the brain and spinal cord? Foramen magnum
10.For hypoglossal nerves? Hypoglossal canals
11.Other parietal bone:• Occipital bone• Temporal bone• Frontal bone • Sphenoid?
Articulations of parietal bones
12.Superior and inferior temporal lines:- to attach temporalis muscle • Grooves for cranial blood
vessels? Marks of the parietal bones
