The skeletal system is known as the support system of the body that also provides protection of the internal organs. The skeletal system consists of bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons (Tortora and Derrickson 2014). “The study of bone structure and the treatment of bone disorders is called osteology” (Tortora and Derrickson 2014). Bone is made of various tissues working together, and because of this, bones are thought of as organs (Tortora and Derrickson 2014). Bones are constantly going…
