Answer:

C is the correct option. Storage of carbohydrates is not a function of the skeletal system.

Explanation:

Option A is correct because the skeletal system has parts like the red bone marrow in which red blood cells and white blood cells are produced.

Option B is correct because the bones store minerals like calcium and phosphorus.

Option D is correct because the major function of the skeletal system is to provide support and protect the vital organs of the body.

The skeletal system is not involved in storing carbohydrates. Hence, all statements are true except for statement C.

vitfil [10]
The correct answer is emphysema.
This respiratory disease occurs when alveoli get enlarged, and thus cause chronic lung inflammation and later on lung fibrosis as well. This person then finds it extremely hard to breathe properly, as airways tend to collapse during expiration.
