I WONDER - Does The Skull Grow?

The video explains how the human skull changes shape as we grow, a process known as remodeling. This process accommodates the growing brain and facial features and continues throughout life, though it slows in adulthood. During childhood, skull bones grow and thicken, and the fibrous joints, or sutures, gradually fuse. As we age, some bone loss may occur, leading to changes in facial shape and appearance.
