This lesson explores the structure and function of the human skeleton, focusing on its role in providing support, protection, and enabling movement. Learners will gain an understanding of the skeleton’s two main divisions, the axial and appendicular skeletons, along with the specific roles of the skull, rib cage, vertebral column, and limb bones. The vertebral column's structure and function will also be discussed, highlighting its contribution to flexibility, stability, and protection of the spinal cord. This foundational knowledge will set the stage for understanding how the skeletal system interacts with other body systems.
