Best Answer

Bones don't bend. They articulate with other bones, forming joints, which bend. You are thinking of your knee, I believe, which is the articulation of your thigh bone and two calf bones.

How does the skeletal system and the nervous system work with each other?

the connection between the two is like this. the nervous system sends the signal to the skeletal muscle to contract. This contraction causes the muscle to pull the bone, and the bone bends. This would mean that the movement of the skeleton is caused by nervous system which triggers the skeletal muscle to move the skeleton.
