For this installment of your discussions please give us two main differences or elaborate on any you can think of between the two divisions of the skeletal system; from the most apparent to how these bones develop. Make your comments brief and succinct. If it seems as though the contributions are sounding similar or the same include a trivia like or little known fact about any one bone in the skeletal system. I will give you an example: The axial contains all bones within the medial aspect of the body. The appendicular incorporates the bones of the pectoral, pelvic girdles and extremities. The capitate is the largest bone of the carpal bones.

The adult human skeleton usually consists of 206 named bones. These bones can be grouped into two divisions: axial skeleton and appendicular skeleton. The 80 bones of the axial skeleton form the vertical axis of the body. They include the bones of the head, vertebral column, ribs, and breastbone or sternum.
