sarcoplasmic reticulum
One of the main functions of the bones of the skeletal system is for movement, protection, and structure. Internal functions are blood cell production and storage.
Support: ex. pelvis supports internal organsProtection: Skull protects brain, vertebrae proctects spinal cordMovement: Skeletal Muscles pull against bonesMineral Storage: Calcium and PhosphateHematopoiesis: Blood formation
The five major functions of the human skeletal system are: Support, Storage of Minerals and Lipids, Blood Cell Production, Protection, and Leverage.
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER), particularly the smooth ER is responsible in the synthesis of lipids. It also functions as the storage for calcium ions.

Calcium and phosphorus are two of the minerals found in the body. The skeletal system serves as a storage place for calcium and phosphorus.
The skeletal system has several functions: - Framework & support (provide body density) - Protection for internal organs - A lever system which, along with muscles, allows movement - Mineral storage; specifically, calcium storage for nerves & muscles - Blood production
