The skeletal system is made up of 206 bones. It also includes cartilage, tendons and ligaments. There are two, primary divisions of the skeletal system: the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. The primary purpose of the human skeletal system is to provide locomotion, support and protection for the body. Vital organs, such as the brain, heart, and lungs, are protected by the skeletal system. In addition to locomotion, support, and protection, the skeletal system also produces red blood cells, and stores important minerals for the body.

What property of water explains why large bodies of water do not quickly fluctuate in temperature?

hichkok12 [17]

Water has a very high specific heat. This means that it requires a large amount of heat to raise the temperature of water.

The reason why it has this property is due to water's hydrogen bonding.
