What is Overview of the Skeletal System about?

The skeletal system comprises 206 bones that are classified as either part of the axial skeleton (80 bones) or appendicular skeleton (126 bones). The axial skeleton includes the skull, vertebral column, ribs, and sternum and forms the central axis of the body, while the appendicular skeleton includes the upper and lower limbs attached to the axial skeleton. Bones are composed of either spongy or compact bone tissue and serve functions like support, protection, movement, and mineral storage.
