When bones are fused together what is the effect on stability and leverage for the attached muscles?
nothing at all

Bones provide a framework for muscles to attach to and pull against, allowing for efficient movement. The shape and arrangement of bones create leverage and support for muscles to generate force and produce movement.
Leverage protection and blood cell production are primarily functions of?
