What is an immovable joint and where is it typically found

An immovable joint, also known as a synarthrosis, is a type of joint in the body that allows for little to no movement between the adjacent bones. These joints are typically found in the skull, where the bones are fused together and do not move. Examples of immovable joints in the skull include the sutures between the cranial bones and the joint between the mandible and the temporal bone. These joints provide stability and support for the structures of the skull.
