The skeletal system is influenced by several forces, primarily mechanical loads from gravity and muscle contractions during movement. These forces create tension and compression on bones, which can stimulate bone remodeling through a process called mechanotransduction, where cells respond to mechanical stress. Additionally, forces such as weight-bearing activities enhance bone density, while a lack of activity can lead to bone loss. Other factors, including hormonal influences and nutritional status, also play a critical role in maintaining skeletal health.
What else can I help you with?
What provides support and levers on which the muscular systems can act?
Bones/skeletal system
Why do the muscular and skeletal systems coordinate?
The muscular and skeletal systems coordinate to produce movement. The skeletal system provides levers against which the contractions of the muscular system can act.
What is the main function of skeletal system in relation to the muscular system?
The main function of the skeletal system in relation to the muscular system is to provide support, protection, and structure for muscles to attach to. The bones act as levers that muscles can pull on to create movement. Additionally, the skeletal system stores minerals that are essential for muscle function, such as calcium and phosphorus.
What three body systems require hand movement?
nervous, muscular, skeletal
Function of bones in the human skeletal system?
The hold you up, and act as levers to allow you to move.
Where is the skeletal system?
The skeletal system are your bones.
Is skeletal system?
skeletal system* bones. :)
What do you mean by skeletal system?
the skeletal system is a system in the body .
What system does marrow belong?
The skeletal system itself is an organ system. Some schemes combine the skeletal system with the muscular system to make the musculoskeletal system.
The total momentum of a group of objects is conserved unless?
b. outside forces act on the objects.
What system helps the body move?
skeletal system
What do you think would happen if a person had no skeletal system?
they would basically act like jelly seen as the skeleton holds us up. There are animals without a skeletal system. Worms for example. If a person had not skeletal system, he would be like a worm. He would flump to the floor and be unable to hold any rigid position.
