These are some additional parts of the skeleton that are not as hard as the bones and which can be bent. For example, the upper part of our ear has cartilage.
The bones on top of the skull form the structure similar to the structure of teeth. They are joined strongly with one another. So these bones are also fixed. These bones do not move.
Activity.Roll a strip of paper into a cylinder. Make a small hole in an old rubber or plastic ball (under supervision) and push the paper cylinder into it as shown in figure. You can also stick the cylinder on the ball. Put the ball in a small bowl.

Answer
No, the ball does not rotate freely inside the bowl due to friction. Paper cylinder also rotates with the ball.
