Why is important to know how muscles and bones protect the body?

The importance of how the skeleton protects the body is trivial. However, one may deduce that the cells in the muscles are actually ninja-cells. This means that the cells have special samurai swords and awesome black outfits. When you are about to fall, the ninja cells kick their ninja balance gear into action, which helps you come out of a fall. The bones have the elite cells, which are like the super-cool cells in that if the bones aren't up-to-date on their tax-payments they turn all IRS and send threatening letters that intimidate the bone in to paying up. By knowing this, you prove that you are worthy of housing these special little cells, and knowing this also helps you help them protect the body.

Do rabbits bone heal?

Rabbits bones do heal but it takes them quite a while. If it is the spine that is broken and the rabbit is having fits, you have to have it put down, but with any other body part of the rabbit just leave it in its cage, inside where it is warm and dark and don't pick it up too much. The body part will be fragile for about 2 months so be careful. Hope this helps :)

Why is the coccyx not used anymore?

The coccyx is the disused remnants of a tail - which we had when the human race was still more closely related to primates. Over millions of years, and successive generations, evolution reduced our need for a tail, and it grew shorter over time. All that remains in modern man - is the four bones of the coccyx - which are fused together.

How does bone marrow regulate homeostasis?

Remodeling or bone turnover is the process of resorption followed by replacement of bone with little change in shape and occurs throughout a person's life. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts, coupled together via paracrine cell signalling, are referred to as bone remodeling units. The purpose of remodeling is to regulate calcium homeostasis, repair micro-damaged bones (from everyday stress) but also to shape and sculpture the skeleton during growth. == The process of bone resorption by the osteoclasts releases stored calcium into the systemic circulation and is an important process in regulating calcium balance. As bone formation actively fixes circulating calcium in its mineral form, removing it from the bloodstream, resorption actively unfixes it thereby increasing circulating calcium levels. These processes occur in tandem at site-specific locations. == Repeated stress, such as weight-bearing exercise or bone healing, results in the bone thickening at the points of maximum stress (Wolff's law). It has been hypothesized that this is a result of bone's piezoelectric properties, which cause bone to generate small electrical potentials under stress

Where on a girl is a good place to get a small tattoo other than lower back or above the hip bone if it needs to be hidden?

Small Hideable TattooOn a female, any tattoo that complements the curves of your body will look great. If the tattoo moves with you and not against you, you cant go wrong.

Try somewhere on your chest, even ankle or shoulder. if it does need to be hdden all the time than maybe you should reconsider the point in your life that you are getting tattooed. Perhaps it is an act that could wait a couple years.

What is 5 types of the bone in one human hand and the 11 types of bones in a foot?

Foot bones includes: tibia, fibula tarsus: talus, calcaneus, cuneiformes, cuboid, and navicular metatarsus: first, second, third, fourth, and fifth metatarsal bone phalanges. Hand bones includes: The human foot is a highly developed, biomechanically complex structure that serves to bear the weight of the body as well as forces many times the weight of the human body during propulsion. About 26 bones in the human foot provide structural support. They can be grouped into 3 parts, as follows[1, 2] : The tarsal bones (7) The metatarsal bones (5) The phalanges (14) Apart from these main bones, the sesamoid bones help improve function and are often found as variants of the accessory bones. The foot itself can be divided into 3 parts: the hindfoot, the midfoot, and the forefoot. The hindfoot is composed of 2 of the 7 tarsal bones, the talus, and the calcaneus; the midfoot contains the rest of the tarsal bones; and the forefoot contains the metatarsals and the phalanges.
