Human Anatomy & Physiology: Skeletal System ; Ziser, Lecture Notes, Systembones, cartilage and ligaments are tightly joined toform a strong, flexible frameworkbone is active tissue:!5-7% bone mass/weekFunctions of Skeletal System :1. Supportstrong and relatively light; 20% body weight2. Movementframework on which muscles actact as levers and pivots3. Protectionbrain, lungs, heart, reproductive system4. Mineral storage (electrolyte balance99% of body s calcium is in bone tissue(1200-1400g vs < in blood, rest in cells)also stores phosphate5. Hemopoiesisblood cell formation6.)
