The human skeleton is very important for our survival, with a total of 206 different bones it can do anything for use from helping us move to protecting our vital organs.
The first important part of the skeleton is our actual skeleton which is made up by our skull, sternum and rib cage which protects our vital organs (e.g. heart, brain, lungs e.t.c.) The actual skeleton is one of the most important for our survival. For instance if you got hit on the head or chest you could sustain severe injuries or even die. :0
Secondly is your long bones which consists of your femur, (leg) humerus, (arm) tibia and fibula. (shin/lower leg) The long bones are the main movement bones but but without our hands and feet they are useless for use but when combined they are very useful.
Thirdly is our movement and grip bones which are our hands, feet, shoulder and knees which are our joints to finish of our movement bones (long bones) without these bones we wouldn't be able to stand upright or even pick up things!!! So these bones help us be human because humans are one of the very fev animals that can stand and walk upright.
Lastly there is your bone marrow which is in most of your 206 bones. Your bone marrow stores fat, produces blood cells and helps us heal and mend your bones, without bone marrow you wouldn't be able to fix sprained, broken and dislocated bones. So let’s say if you broke your arm when you were five it would be broken for the rest of your life.
In conclusion the human skeleton allows us to move, protects the vital organs and with the help of our bone marrow we can heal our bones and the human skeleton make use human.
