The skeleton system serves as a support system for your body, your muscles are attached to your bones by tendons (also known as the musculo-skeletal system)providing the ability to move, and bones protect certain organs. The ribs, for example, are a layer of protection for your lungs and heart. The brain is protected by the surrounding skull. Blood cells are produced in the marrow of bones and bones are used as resevoirs for minerals such as calcium and phosphorus.
