Protection- the cranium and ribs protect the brain and vital organs in the chest

Shape- gives shape to the body and makes you tall or short

Support- holds your vital organs in place when playing sports. The vertebrae column holds the body upright

Movement- muscles are attached to bones, which are joined. When the muscles contract, the bones move

Blood Production- red blood cells(to carry oxygen) and white blood cells(to protect against infection) are produced in the bone marrow of some bones

Please provide a legitimate answer and provide an explanation for the question below.
UNO [17]

Answer:

The skeletal system is vital in supporting the immune system because : Bones contain marrow, a porous material which creates both white and red blood cells. This replenishment of cells allows the body to fight and expel harmful bacteria, environmental toxins,  foreign material e.t.c.

The white blood cells formed by the marrow are instrumental in isolating and destroying harmful particles (either on the site or in lymph nodes), or transporting them to the kidneys or bowels for excretion.

NOTE : Some people have marrow disorders which prevent their marrow from forming new cells; this is caused most often by cancer. Today, it is possible to transplant marrow from a healthy individual to a sick patient, and so help their bone marrow form new white and red blood cells to fight their sickness.

I hope it helps :)
