Why might a fractured bone of the axial skeleton be more damaging to overall homeostasis than a fractured bone of the appendicul

ar? Axial skeleton protects vital organs, such as brain, heart, spinal cord, etc. The axial skeleton is derived from hyaline cartilage and can puncture or damage other organs upon fractures. The axial skeleton does not heal as quickly and efficiently as the appendicular skeletal system. Axial skeleton stores most of the calcium for homeostasis.

Answer:

The correct answer is "Axial skeleton protects vital organs, such as brain, heart, spinal cord, etc.".

Explanation:

Fractured bones can cause different levels of damage in the overall body's homeostasis depending on the location of the fracture. A fracture of the axial skeleton will be more damaging to overall homeostasis than a fractured bone of the appendicular, because axial skeleton protects vital organs, such as brain, heart, spinal cord, etc.; while the appendicular main function is to provide support to the appendage, including the limbs, supporting pectoral and pelvic girdle.
