Which description includes all three principal mechanical functions of the skeleton?
Supporting the body, protecting organs, and providing a movement framework✓Respuesta correcta
Protecting only the brain and performing no other mechanical role
Pushing the limbs directly without help from muscles
Storing air, pumping blood, and digesting food
Explicación
The skeleton supports body form, shields vulnerable organs, and supplies a framework that muscles pull on to create movement. Bones do not actively push limbs by themselves, because the force comes from muscle contraction.
