The skin and skeletal systems are related through their interconnected functions in providing support and protection to the body. The skeletal system provides structure and support for the skin, while the skin helps protect the bones and other organs beneath it. Additionally, the skin contains receptors that sense pressure and touch, which are important for the skeletal system's coordination and movement.

How does the skeletal system help your body?

1) It gives support and structure to the body 2) It is a place for muscle attachment and movement 3) It protects the visceral organs 4) It is a place for mineral storage 5) It is also the location of Haematopoiesis (blood formation)
