What is the primary function of the skeletal system in supporting the body?




✔✔ The primary function of the skeletal system is to provide structural support for the body,

protect internal organs, and facilitate movement through the attachment of muscles. It also plays

a crucial role in producing blood cells and storing minerals.




How do ligaments contribute to joint stability?




✔✔ Ligaments contribute to joint stability by connecting bones to each other and providing

support and reinforcement to the joint structure. They help prevent excessive movement and

maintain proper alignment of the bones during movement.




What role do tendons play in muscle function?




✔✔ Tendons play a crucial role in muscle function by connecting muscles to bones. They

transmit the force generated by muscle contractions to the bones, enabling movement of the

skeletal system.

, How does the muscular system interact with the skeletal system to produce movement?




✔✔ The muscular system interacts with the skeletal system to produce movement by contracting

and pulling on tendons attached to bones. When muscles contract, they create force that moves

the bones around joints, resulting in various types of body movements.




What is the function of the cartilage in joints?




✔✔ Cartilage functions to cushion and reduce friction between bones in joints. It acts as a

smooth surface that allows for easier and more fluid movement of the joint, while also absorbing

shock to protect the bones from wear and tear.




How does the nervous system support body movement?




✔✔ The nervous system supports body movement by transmitting signals from the brain to the

muscles via the spinal cord and peripheral nerves. These signals coordinate muscle contractions

and control movement, balance, and posture.
