Why can the bones of the skull protect the internal organs?

The way the bones of the skull protect the internal organs is by protecting the master control organ of the entire body....the brain. The brain and spinal cord (extension of the brain) constitute the central nervous system. The central nervous system controls all systems, functions, organs, tissues, and cells of the body. It is the most important system, therefore the body protects it by encasing the brain in the skull, and the spinal cord with 24 movable vertebra.

How does the skeletal System interact with the Nervous System?

The skeletal system helps mobilize the body by providing attachment sites for the muscles; producing levers. The nervous system tells the skeletal muscles what do do. So, by controlling the muscles, the nervous system indirectly interacts with the skeletal system. i agree with that because i know the nervous system does do that that was a good answer. but do you know when you grow real old and your bones cant stand up any longer you get osteperosis i love the sketetal but i dont agree. with her answer because my grandmother is really really old older than you can imagine and she has healthy bones she does not have osteoperosis so i don't agree.


Does the nervous system work with the skeletal system?

Yes, the nervous system and skeletal system work together in the body. The nervous system sends signals to the skeletal muscles to produce movement, while the skeletal system provides structural support and protection for the nervous system. Additionally, the spinal cord, which is part of the nervous system, is protected by the vertebrae of the spinal column in the skeletal system.
