Chapter 43, Problem 9TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The skeletal system of an animal works as a body framework that makes the muscles work to move body organ or the entire body. In vertebrates, these muscles are attached to the bones of the skeleton and are connected by the joints. These joints allow bones to make movement.
