Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be C) provides support for the body and protects delicate internal organs.

The skeletal system consists of bone, ligaments, cartilages and other tissues.

The main functions of a skeletal system in a human being are:

  • Support: It provides the framework and support to the body which helps in maintaining the shape of the body. For example, lungs would have collapsed in absence of rib cage and associated muscles.
  • Movement: It helps in movement and locomotion of the body.
  • Protection: It protects the internal organs of the body. For example, the skull protects the brain, vertebrate protects the spinal cord et cetera.
  • Blood cell production:  Haematopoiesis mainly occurs in the bone marrow.
  • Storage: It can store minerals like iron and calcium.
  • Endocrine regulation: Osteocalcin released from bone cells contributes to the blood sugar (glucose) regulation and fat deposition.

The pulmonary circulation conveys blood that is ______ in oxygen to the lungs before returning back to the ______ side of the he
Oduvanchick [21]

The pulmonary circulation conveys blood that is low in oxygen to the lungs before returning back to the left side of the heart.

<h3>The pulmonary circulation</h3>

The circulatory system is divided into two main parts namely:

  • pulmonary circulation and

  • systemic circulation.

The pulmonary circulation involves the movement of blood between the lungs and the heart.

Blood from the systemic circulation returns to the right side of the heart where it is pumped through the pulmonary artery into the lungs to be oxygenated.

After oxygenation has taken place in the lungs, the blood returns to the left side of the heart through the pulmonary veins.
