1. To support the body, it is kept in position by the muscles that are attached to the skeleton. 2. The flat bones protect internal organs. 3. To allow movement of the bodies joints. 4. Blood cells are produced in the red bone marrow in the centre of some bones, including the pelvis, ribs, vertebrae and stenum. The yellow bone marrow stores fat. The yellow bone marrow can convert to red bone marrow if the body needs additional blood production. 5. Minerals are stored in the bone. (mainly calcium and phosphorus)
