The skeletal system performs vital functions support, movement, protection, blood cell production, calcium storage and endocrine regulation that enable us to survive.Animals with internal skeletons made of bone, called vertebrates, are actually the minority, as 98 percent of all animals are invertebrates, meaning they do not have internal skeletons or backbones. Human infants are born with about 270 bones, some of which fuse together as the body develops. By the time we reach adulthood, we have 206 bones.

In the United States, orthopedic surgeons have typically completed four years of undergraduate education and four years of medical school. They then undergo residency training in orthopedic surgery. The American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery oversees the certification process for this specialty. Many go on to further specialize in specific areas, such as the spine, hand or sports injuries.]]> 2017-02-05 17:36:34 UTC https://padlet.com/dayamip02/k05axtv63nme/wish/151673910 dayamip02 https://padlet.com/dayamip02/k05axtv63nme/wish/151673958 The primary skeletal conditions are metabolic bone diseases such as osteoporosis, osteomalacia, and a few other rarer conditions. Osteoporosis is a prevalent disease, particularly among the elderly, resulting in the loss of bone tissue. In osteoporosis, bone loses calcium, becomes thinner and may disappear completely, according to Wei. osteomalacicia is a softening of the bones, according to the Mayo Clinic. It is often caused by a vitamin D deficiency and results from a defect in the bone-building process. Osteoporosis, on the other hand, develops in previously constructed bones.]]> 2017-02-05 17:37:19 UTC https://padlet.com/dayamip02/k05axtv63nme/wish/151673958 dayamip02 https://padlet.com/dayamip02/k05axtv63nme/wish/151674088 Arthritis is a group of more than 100 inflammatory diseases that damage joints and their surrounding structures. Arthritis can attack joints, joint capsules, the surrounding tissue, or throughout the body. It usually affects the joints of the neck, shoulders, hands, lower back, hips, or knees. ]]> 2017-02-05 17:39:09 UTC https://padlet.com/dayamip02/k05axtv63nme/wish/151674088 dayamip02 https://padlet.com/dayamip02/k05axtv63nme/wish/151674228

The smallest bones in the body are found in the ear.

The longest bone in the body is the femur.

The bones are filled with a fatty substance called bone marrow. In this marrow, red and white blood cells are manufactured and then released into the bloodstream.

Over half the body's bones are in the hands and feet.

The only jointless bone in your body is the hyoid bone in your throat.

As your bones grow, you get taller (of course). Your growth in height is likely to stop by the time you are 16 if you're a girl and 18 if you're a boy.
