Best Answer

The skeletal system stores the excess calcium that the digestive system breaks down from food. The body does not need all of the calcium that it gets from food, so it stores what is not needed within the bones until the body has a use for it. This is what keeps your bones hard and strong.

How does the skeletal interact with the skeletal system?

the digestive system can work with other systems 2 but it needs the skeletal system 2. it needs it 4 different reasons. The liver does send nutrients around the body after the small intestines absorb the nutrients and give it to the liver. The liver needs the help of the circulatory system do it. So the blood vessels of the liver help the liver give the nutrients to the body. So that's an example of why the digestive system needs the skeletal system. Hope this answer helps.
