Document Summary

Bone reacts to the amount of force applied by increasing both the density and amount of roughening on bone or decreasing density when force is reduced or eliminated (ex. paralysis) (deposition vs resorption) Bone stores calcium which is a resorbed and transferred to the bloodstream when needed. Support: provide a framework to support body and cradle soft organs. Bones of lower limbs act as pillars to support the trunk when we stand. Anchorage and movement: muscles that attach to bones via tendons use the bone as a lever to move the design of joins determines the type of movement possible. Stored minerals are released into the bloodstream as their ionic form when needed. Blood cell formation: hematopoiesis occurs in the red bone marrow of certain bones. Fat (triglyceride) storage: stored in bone cavities. Hormone production: osteocalcin, this helps regulate insulin secretion, glucose homeostasis and energy expenditure. Molds to fit the its body location and function.
