B5a - Skeletons
  1. Types of skeleton
    1. Internal Skeleton
      1. provides framework and shape
        1. grows with the body
          1. attaches to muscles easily
            1. has joints for flexibility
              1. Humans
                1. made from bone and cartilage
                2. Sharks
                  1. made only of cartilage
                3. External Skeleton
                  1. heavy
                    1. inflexible
                      1. made from chitin
                        1. must shed skeleton to grow
                          1. insects

                              1. have a hollow shaft
                                1. contains bone marrow and blood vessels
                                2. weigh less than other bones
                                  1. stronger than other bones
                                    1. head covered in cartilage
                                      1. lubricate movement against other bones

                                          1. bones in a foetus are made from cartilage
                                            1. makes the bones hard
                                            2. the proportion of cartilage to bone can be used as a measure of growth
