Detailed explanation-1: -The skull is made up mostly of immovable joints due to which skull bones cannot move except for the lower jaw . The lower jaw is connected to the other bones via movable joints which makes its movement possible.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hence, all bones present in the skull are immovable except for the lower jaw bone.
