How does the axial skeleton differ from the appandicular skeleton?
The axial skeleton comprises the bones of the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage, serving to protect vital organs and support the body's central structure. In contrast, the appendicular skeleton includes the bones of the limbs and the girdles (shoulder and pelvic) that attach them to the axial skeleton, facilitating movement and mobility. Essentially, the axial skeleton provides stability and protection, while the appendicular skeleton is primarily involved in locomotion and manipulation of the environment.
