Sutures

Which sutures are responsible for the vertical expansion of the skull?

Dude, that's deep. I don't know.

Well if one assumes the suture has to be horizontal and its expansion result in height, it may be the lambdoid and squamosal sutures.

Yes but very interesting.
I think the vertical expansion of the skull is dependable on the size of the brain.
DO you know what the width is between the brain layer and inner skull?
