the bones are rigid --------- I think a better way to answer this is they are rigid, but both curved and straight. Have you ever seen a picture of the femur, the pelvis, or the scapula? What about the clavicle? These bones, as all bones are, are rigid. They hold their shape (unlike the cartilage of the ear or nose) but are curved. A rigid straight bone could be named as the phalanges, or the humerus (MAYBE). I mean, even the radius and ulna are curved a small amount.
