Appendicular skeleton is the part of the skeleton of vertebrates consisting of the bones that support the appendages, that is, in the form of limbs. The bones of the appendicular skeleton are responsible for making the movement of our bodies possible. Girdles and hind limbs are the part of the appendicular skeleton whereas the vertebral column is the part of the axial skeleton.
