It's the immovable joint between the two parietal bones of the skull. It's located in the middle of the frontal and occipital bones going vertically. The sagittal suture connects the two parietal bones together. It's located between the occipital and frontal bones.

Why are the sagittal and coronal sutures given those names?
The sagittal suture separates the top of skull into two (sagitt- means twin), and the coronal suture is in the location that you might find a crown (corona).
What is the suture joint and where is it found?
Examples of sutures as joints are found in the bone that make up the cranium which covers the brain. There are 22 bones that form the cranium. There are 11 sutures. The joint is slightly moveable and that gives some flexibility to the cranium. This type of joint is called a synarthrosis.

The parietal bones together?
the sagittal suture
Does the sagittal suture connect the parietal bones?
yes
Is it true that the parietal bones meet the frontal bone along the sagittal suture?
No, the parietal and frontal bones are joined by the coronal suture. The saggital suture joins the parietal bones to each other.
The parietal bones are firmly interlocked along the midline by the?
The parietals are joined at the "sagittal suture", unless you happen to be an ape, in which case, it is the sagittal ridge.
What are the four major sutures of the skull?
Squamous suture (separates the temporal bone from the parietal bone), Coronal suture (separates the frontal bone from the parietal bone), Sagittal suture (separates the parietal bones) and the Lamboid suture (separates the occipital bone from the parietal bone)
Why are the sagittal and coronal sutures given those names?

What is a sagittal cut?
you mean a sagittal suture and it is the fault-like crack moving vertically between your frontal and occipital bones.
What is sagittal suture made of?
Tissues that are ligaments. These hold bones together at joints called sutures.
What are the sutures of the skull?
The sutures, synarthrotic joints, for the zygomatic bones are between the temporal process of the zygomatic bone and the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the zygomatic arch.
