Show transcript
Anatomy and physiology is the study of the structure of the body and how it functions. The axial skeleton is a structural framework that contains the cranium, vertebrae, ribs and sternum. The appendicular skeleton contains the bones of the upper and lower limbs, the scapula, clavicle and pelvis. Muscles attach to bones and work together to create movement. Bones protect vital organs, produce red blood cells and store minerals.
