What are the uses of the skeleton in our body?

Answer 1

Skeleton in our body performs functions like external support, movement, protection to our body and internally production of blood cells, storage of minerals, and endocrine regulation

As like the steel beams of a building provide a scaffold to support its weight, the bones and cartilage of the skeletal system compose the scaffold that supports the rest of your body. Without the skeletal system, you would be a limp mass of organs, muscle, and skin

Bones also facilitate movement by serving as points of attachment for the muscles. While some bones only serve as a support for the muscles, others also transmit the forces produced when the muscles contract. From a mechanical point of view, bones act as levers and joints serve as fulcrums Unless a muscle spans a joint and contracts, a bone is not going to move
