A Skeleton is not made up of one bone. But rather lots of bones joined together, with cartilage and joints (not always see inner ear). and thus will allow movement. This of course is not possible with out muscles which anchor to the bones.

How does your skeleton help you move?

The bones in our body don't actually move; Our muscles contract (Shorten and thicken), bending out joints and moving our muscles. To actually make a difference, though, the muscles need a point of attachment; the skeleton. The muscles connect to the skeleton via tendons, contract to pull a bone back, and move the bone.
