Strengthening Bones: Understanding the Skeletal System

The skeletal system plays a crucial role in providing structural support, protection for major organs, and enabling movement through muscle attachment. Comprising 206 bones, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments, it works seamlessly with the muscular system for movement, the immune system for white blood cell production, and the nervous system for spinal cord protection. To strengthen bones, consider nutrition, weight-bearing exercises, and lifestyle choices. Dive into resources like the "Skeletal System" video for an engaging visual explanation.

  1. Skeletal system By: Brady Moore

  2. Driving question What is the best way to make stronger bones?

  3. Main Functions: • Support- provides structural support • Protection- surrounds soft tissue , and all major organs • Movement- skeletal muscle is attached to bone so it pulls the bone when it contracts

  4. Main organs • All 206 bones • Cartilage • Tendons • ligaments

  5. Skeletal System works with: • Muscular system- relaxes and contracts the bones and creates movement • Immune system- bone marrow produces white blood cells • Nervous system- the vertebral column holds the spinal cord needed for nervous connections throughout the body

  6. How I work • I protect major organs and help the body move.

  7. Awesome video • skeletal system school house rock video - Bing Videos
