@bonemuseum: A newborn skull is very different from an adult skull. Pediatric skulls contain fontanelles, or “soft spots,” and flexible sutures that allow the head to pass through the birth canal and accommodate rapid brain growth during early childhood. As a child develops, these gaps gradually close and fuse, transforming the skull into the rigid structure seen in adulthood. This process provides valuable clues about growth, age, and development.#museumtiktokcontest #internationalmuseumday #museumtok
