  2. Skeletal System: Body Parts • Bones- Made of Osseous tissue, holds up the body and they are the main part of the skeletal system. • Cartilage- Tougher than muscles but more flexible than bones. Makes up your nose and ears. • Works with the Muscular System

  3. Skeletal System: Functions • A movable frame of support • Protection for internal body organs • Gives the body structure

  4. Skeletal System: Body Health • Works with Muscular System to provide structured movement. • Keeps you standing up! You will become a BLOB! • Provides protection and support for your body

  8. Osteoporosis: Treatment Options • No real treatments • Can only be prevented or aided • Ways to prevent Osteoporosis: • Calcium • Vitamin D • Exercise • Meditation

  9. Osteoporosis: Current Research • Secondary Osteoporosis is more common • People who have Osteoporosis experienced symptoms of Osteoporosis • Secondary Osteoporosis is more common in men

  10. Global Impact • US-30,229,223 • Brazil-12,183,161 • Britain-3,988,502 • China-133,704,906 • Ethiopia-7,343,470 • Australia-2,049,882

  11. Conclusion • We should be given the grant so we can go further into research of the impact on Osteoporosis. Please give us the grant to save lives.
