Skeletal
Systema skeletale
The skeletal system provides structural support, protection for internal organs, and attachment points for muscles. It consists of 206 bones in the adult human body, along with cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. The skeletal system also serves as a reservoir for minerals, particularly calcium and phosphorus, and houses bone marrow for blood cell production.
