The types of bones1. Long Bones- for example the femur are

mainly concerned with creating movement

2. Short Bones- For example the phalanges

3. Flat bones- For example the cranium, theirmain function is protection

4. Irregular bones- For example the vertebrae,their function is primarily protection but theyare also involved in movement.

Types of skeleton

1. The appendicular skeleton- The long bones of the upper and lower limbs and their girdlesthat join to the axial skeleton.

Examples: Femur, Humerus, Tibia, Fibula.

Function: Help create movement.

2. The axial skeleton- Its function is to protect,

carry and support the other body parts.Examples: Cranium, Vertebrae, and Rib cage.

Function: Protection of the brain or vital

organs

Functions of the Skeleton

1. Give structure to the body

2. Protection of vital organs- for example thecranium protects the brain

3. Blood production- Bone marrow in the centre

of bones produces red blood cells4. Bones are attached to muscles via tendons

when these muscles contract the tendons pull

on bones and movement is produced
