Skeletal system GapFill

The skeletal system provides a framework for movement, by working with the  gasfitnessmuscularcardiovascular system. The bones act as levers and provide points for  bursaebonesmusclesblood cells to attach to via tendons, causing movement at a  joint capsulecartilagesynovial jointlong bone when the muscles contract.

The shape and type of bones can lead to different amounts of movements.  ShortLongFlatThick bones allow for fine movements, while  shortlongthickflat bones enable gross movements.  WhiteLongThickFlat bones provide protection to the vital organs, such as the cranium protecting the brain and the  ulnahumerustalusribs protecting the heart and lungs. Different joint types also allow for different types of movement, with  tableaerobichingeball and socket joints allowing the greatest range of movement.
