Without bones you would not be able to have control of your body, without bones you would be all floppy. Also for support so that you can keep your shape and for organ protection, e.g your ribs protect your lungs and heart.

Well, bodies don't necessarily need bones. For example, octopi don't, nor do worms. But larger land animals have found that they need bones (or they wouldn't have arisen!) because the bones enable them to get around faster (no more crawling)

∙ 15y agoYou have so many bones, simply because ... like, how will you stand and move without all these bones to be strong and help you keep stable. So, bones help us be stable, when we move our body. If we didnt have bones we would just be big glop of goo !

∙ 11y agoWe have 206 bones in our body. Bones give rigidity to our body and joints give mobility.Imagine a person with out knee joint and he will not be able to sit. Do not bend the elbow and you will find it very difficult to eat.With a single bone from neck to tel bone, you will not be able to bend and turn around. Bones are light weight, very strong, porous, (Unless you have diseases like rickets, osteomalacia or osteoporosis. ) and each of them is architectural marvel, designed to perform specific functions. And they are dynamic also. Means they may change there strength, according to the required function.
