Verified step by step guidance

Step 1: Understand the anatomy of the skull. The human skull is composed of several bones that are connected by immovable joints called sutures. These sutures are named based on their location and the bones they connect.

Step 2: Identify the parietal bones. The parietal bones are two large, flat bones located on the sides and roof of the skull. They form the majority of the cranial vault.

Step 3: Learn the names and locations of the sutures. The sagittal suture is located between the two parietal bones, running along the midline of the skull. The coronal suture connects the frontal bone to the parietal bones, the lambdoid suture connects the occipital bone to the parietal bones, and the squamous suture connects the temporal bone to the parietal bone.

Step 4: Match the suture to its location. Since the question asks for the suture located between the two parietal bones, the correct answer is the sagittal suture.

Step 5: Review the anatomical significance. The sagittal suture is important in cranial development and can be used as a landmark in medical imaging and surgery.
