Functions
Protection
The body has lots of vital delicate organs that need protecting from damage.
The skeleton helps protect them by surrounding some delicate parts of the
body.
Shape
The way our bones are arranged gives our body its general framework and
shape. Certain builds are more suited to particular sports
Support
The body gets it shape and size from bones. The bones support different
body positions and allow the muscles to attach to a framework to give us
shape. If you are stood up, sat down or even tucked up in a somersault your
bones give your body support in lots of different positions. The size of your
bones can affect your height and body composition.
Movement
The different bones of the body meet to form a joint. These joints act as
levers to create movement. Muscles are attached to bones by tendons. As
the muscles contract they pull on the bones to create movement around a
joint.
Production of blood cells
In the long bones production of white and red blood cells occurs.
Blood cells constantly need to be replaced. White blood cells help
to fight germs and bacteria. These need to be constantly
regenerated so the body can be guarded from disease. Red blood
cells transport oxygen from the lungs around the body
Regular exercise
Increasing bone density, offsetting the risk of osteoporosis
Slowing the loss of calcium so the bone fights deterioration
Increasing the flexibility of the joints
Strengthening tendons and ligaments, stabilizing joints
