Skeletal system
Functions
Blood cell productions
-
Blood cells are made in the bone marrow of long bones such as the femur, humerus and ribs.
The bone marrow of a human adult produces all of the red blood cells, some of the white cells and all of the platelets in the body.

Protection
The skeleton protects vital organs such as the brain, heart and lungs.
For example, the cranium protects the brain, the ribs protect the heart and lungs, the pelvis protects the abdomen, and the spinal column protects the spinal cord.
