  • Name as many bones as possible
    Answers:
  • Name 5 functions of the skeletal system
    The bones of the Skelton provide surface for the attachment of muscles.
    Storage of minerals (calcium and phosphate).
    Production of red and white blood cells and platelets.
    Provides support and protection.
    Movement-muscles pull on the bones and produce movement.
  • Movement types for ball and socket
