Blood production
Bone marrow is the flexible tissue found in the interior of bones. In humans, marrow in large bones produces new blood cells. It constitutes 4% of the total body weight of humans. The new blood cells are released into the body and go through the arteries and veins to the heart to get oxygenated from the air we breathe in, that's why blood is red because it has been oxygenated but when it hasn't it is blue.
Movement
The joints between bones allow movement, some allowing a wider amount of movement than others, e.g. the ball and socket joint allows a greater amount of movement than the pivot joint at the neck. Movement is powered by skeletal muscles, which are attached to the skeleton at various parts on bones. Muscles, bones, and joints provide the basic needs for movement, all coordinated by the nervous system.
Support
The skeleton provides the framework which supports the body and maintains its shape. The pelvis and associated ligaments and muscles provide a floor for the pelvic structures. Without the ribs, coastal cartilages, and the intercostal muscles the heart would collapse.
the skeleton also provides shape and protection to vital organs....
Do we have a skeleton to protect our organs and to help us move and support our body
a skeleton dog
The axial skeleton
Yes. Many fish have a skeleton made out bones like us humans.
The skeleton system is called so because it forms the framework and support structure of the body, much like how a skeleton provides structure and support to an organism. It consists of bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons that work together to give the body its shape and allow for movement.
well, you probably know what a skeleton is. endo means within, so basically an endoskeleton is a skeleton inside an organism (like us!!) :)
The skeleton provides structure and support for muscles to attach to, allowing them to contract and move our body parts. Joints in the skeleton also enable flexibility and range of motion for movement. The skeleton acts as a lever system, amplifying and facilitating muscle contractions to produce movement.
not really..,,not really..,,
If you had no skeleton, you would be like a jelly man. I you wanted to see for yourself, you should look at snails: This is why snails move very slowly. We would be crawling around the floor with no skeleton. Our skeleton supports us.
Because they live in the earth, so therefore they don't need the skeleton, unlike us.
I know it doesnt help, but this is exactly what i have to do and its due tomorrow!! sorry i couldn't help, but everyone, pleasee give us any ideas!!
the skeleton help you to stand up, give your body shape and make blood in the blood marrow. :)
