vertebrates

endoskeleton with vertebrae in a spinal column. gives form to the body

what are bones>

cellular structure where extracellular fluid of the cell is surrounded by rigid calcified frame



skeleton

framework of one bone with all the other bones

what does the skeleton do>

gives identifiable form of animal and provides protection

medullary cavity

location of blood formation

calcified regions

sink and source for many minerals

what allows body to move?

attachment of muscles to bone

what is the dynamic structure capable of?

remodelling for different loads of stresses

can function be restored to bones?

yes, by bone repair
