Framework-To support the body's muscles, fat and skin. Bone holds you together by providing a structure for tissues and organs to form around. This rigid structure is necessary for the support of the body. Without bones, tissues and organs would collapse onto each other. Bones also hold the body upright.
Protection- The skeleton protects organs in the body. Bones can cover and protect many of our major organs. They are like an armor that protects the organs.
1. cranium: protects the brain
2. ribs/sternum: protects the lungs, heart and some digestive organs
3. pelvis: protects and supports the digestive and reproductive organs
4. spinal column: protects the spine
Levers-muscles attach to bones to provide movement. The bones are the levers that help the body move in different directions and in different ways. The bones by themselves can't move without the muscles that are connected to them.
Production of blood cells- Inside of the long bones in our bodies, there is a cavity that is filled with a substance called Bone Marrow. In this tissue, new blood cells are produced, and damaged blood cells are repaired. Red bone marrow produces red blood cells, white blood cells and other blood elements. produces blood cells-Hemopoiesis
Storage-Bone store most of the calcium supply to the body.
