Why Does The Anterior Fontanelle Close?

Why does the anterior fontanelle close,can it open again(and I don t mean the patient splitting their skull open), and why do we even have it? I apologize if I sound pushy, I just haven t been able to get a straight answer from the internet, and was hoping for an actual person with experience in such matters. And being 12, I can hardly drive over to the library.
