The skeletal system helps protect your heart from severe injures, its "shelters" your heart. Lets say you fall, your axial system will break the fall, without it you would be dead by now. There are 2 types of skeletal systems, the axial, and the appendicular. You can live without the appendicular, but it supports your body, the axial is the most important bones such as: the cranium (skull), your spinal cord, and your ribs. You ABSOLUTELY CANNOT live without the axial system.
