The human skeleton is the internal framework of the human body. It is
composed of around 270 bones at birth - this total decreases to around
206 bones by adulthood after some bones get fused together." The
bone mass in the skeleton reaches maximum density around age 21.
The human skeleton can be divided into the axial skeleton and
the appendicular skeleton. The axial skeleton is formed by the vertebral
column, the rib cage, the skull and other associated bones. The
appendicular skeleton, which is attached to the axial skeleton, is formed
by the shoulder girdle, the pelvic girdle and the bones of the upper and
lower limbs.
The human skeleton performs six major functions; support, movement,
protection, production of blood cells, storage of minerals, and endocrine
regulation
