The Skeletal System By Katie, Hannah, Nick
Skeletal System • We are the skeletal system • In our system, there are 206 bones • Our job is to provide your body with support • We also protect vital organs • We help you move Just like this skeleton
What bones are made of - Katie • Joints and Ligaments - Hannah • How many bones are there in the human body - Nick
Jokes that will tickle your funny bone • When does a skeleton laugh? • When something tickles his funny bone. • Why didn't the skeleton dance at the Halloween party? • It had no body to dance with. • What instrument do skeletons play? • Trom-BONE • How did the skeleton know it was going to rain ? • He could feel it in his bones
WhatBones are made of • There are many layers that make up a bone • Some things that make up bones are yellow and red bone marrow, sponge bone and hard bone • All the things that make up bones give us support and without them, we would collapse The inside of a bone
Joints and Ligaments • Ligaments are a fibrous tissue that connects bones to other bones • A joint is the location at which two or more bones connect • Ligaments are similar to fasciae and are made up of collagen • Joints are constructed to allow movement
Major Bones • Femur is one of the major bones - it is the long bone in your leg • Skull is another major bone – it is the bone that protects your brain • The humorous bone is also one of the major bones -it is the bone in your elbow and forearm
How The Skeletal System Works With Other Systems • We help protect the body's vital organs • The skin and the muscular system depend on the skeletal system to keep them in place • The skeletal system makes sure all the systems are in contact
The H.B.C Must Keep Us • Without us, all the systems would end up in the wrong place • Without us, you won’t be able to move • You need us or you will collapse and you will just be skin and guts
