What would you look like without bones? Without bones inside you to give you shape, you would be a BLOB!

Interesting facts The longest bone in your body is the bone above your knee, the thighbone. The longest bone in your body is the bone above your knee, the thighbone. Your funny bone isn’t a bone at all. Your funny bone isn’t a bone at all. When you were born, you had more than 300 bones. By the time you stop growing, you’ll have 206. When you were born, you had more than 300 bones. By the time you stop growing, you’ll have 206. Your bones are living. They grow as you get older. Your bones are living. They grow as you get older.

The adult human skeleton contains about 206 bones. Its two main parts are shown. Skeletal System Structure

Bone Growth Bone cells do reproduce throughout life. Bone cells do reproduce throughout life.
29
Your bones grow in both length and diameter. Growth in length occurs at the ends of bones in cartilage plates. Growth in diameter occurs on the outer surface of the bone. After growth stops, bone-forming cells are involved in repair and maintenance of bone. Bone growth

What type of joint is illustrated in this image? What type of joint is illustrated in this image? D. gliding C. pivot B. hinge A. ball and socket Question 1
61
The answer is C. Pivot joints allow bones to twist around each other.
62
Where, on the body, would you find bursae? Where, on the body, would you find bursae? Question 2 D. pelvis C. shoulder B. hands A. skull
63
The answer is C, shoulder. Bursae are fluid-filled sacs located on the outside of the joints. They act to decrease friction.
