What are 5 functions of the Skeleton?

The skeleton gives us our general SHAPE and determines whether we are tall or short, broad or narrow. A basketball player will tend to have a long and thin frame and a jockey will have a small and thin frame.The bones of the skeleton SUPPORT the rest of the body. Bones are firm and rigid to support the body and keep it upright. Part of the body is muscle attached to the skeleton.The skeleton helps the body to MOVE by providing a framework onto which muscles attach. Bones work with the muscles to allow the body to move. The skeleton provides anchor parts to which the muscles attach.Some bones help PROTECT the internal organs of the body. Examples would be the skull, pelvis, rib cage and vertebrae.What is not obvious is that PRODUCTION of red and white blood cells takes place in some bones of the body. In the long bones the production of red and white blood cells takes place.Your skeleton protects your vital organs, serves as support, and movement, and it also helps with blood formation and it stores some minerals such as calcium.
