Answer:1. Craniosynostosis is a birth defect in which the bones in a baby's skull join together too early. This happens before the baby's brain is fully formed. As the baby's brain grows, the skull can become more misshapen. The spaces between a typical baby's skull bones are filled with flexible material and called sutures.

2. There are no survival advantages because when a baby is born, his parent(s) have to be very gentle and careful with all their actions. Because something as little as posture can affects the baby’s whole life
