| 1. | The sagittal suture joins together the two parietal bones of skull.
|
| 2. | The bones of the lambdoid, and one sagittal suture.
|
| 3. | An increased A-P diameter indicates a malformed fusion of the sagittal suture.
|
| 4. | The metopic suture runs from your baby's nose to the sagittal suture.
|
| 5. | In forensic anthropology, the sagittal suture is one method used to date human remains.
|
| 6. | In scaphocephaly the sagittal suture is prematurely fused, preventing the skull from growing perpendicular to the suture.
|
| 7. | Bregma-where the coronal and sagittal sutures intersect ) to simplify the process of properly identifying them.
|
| 8. | It is a type of cephalic disorder which occurs when there is a premature fusion of the sagittal suture.
|
| 9. | Two anatomical landmarks are found on the sagittal suture : the bregma, and the vertex of the skull.
|
| 10. | The vertex is the highest point on the skull and is often near the midpoint of the sagittal suture.
