The skeletal system is an awesome structure, and is essential for the protection of our Internal organs, providing a framework for our bodies, producing blood cells and producing blood cells. In this lecture, I deal with the structure of its two main parts: The axial and appendicular skeletons, how bones are formed and details about the functions associated with the skeletal system. I end the lecture by talking about bone injury and disease, such as Osteoporosis.
This is section 34.2 in the textbook Biology: The Dynamics of Life and is part of the chapter on Protection, Locomotion and Support. The audio for this section and the next is a little messed up in some places because there seems to have been a short in the wireless mic cable I was using. However, it’s good enough for you to hear it all.

where is the femur and its parts and wat they do????????????? huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh huh
Wow, that’s a lot of huh’s
The femur is the bone between your knee and your hip. It allows you to move your leg. It also helps to support your upper body. Hope that answers all of your huh’s

university student in florida
@rolsarvel Well thank you. I appreciate your kind words
great
great
The video will not work for me. It says
Video not found: http://interactive-biology.com/videos/Bio34-2.flv
I still cannot get the video on the skeleton to work.
Thanks,
Susan
I love your videos! It makes it easier to go through anatomy and physiology! Thank you!
@ReinaDelAcordeonMimi You are very much welcome. Glad to know they are helping
Do you have any videos on the axial and appendicular skeleton?
@ReinaDelAcordeonMimi This is the only one that goes into that topic. I will in the future, but that won’t be for a while.
@InteractiveBiology Awwww =’( well thanks anways
This really helps me study for my tests. I have to study for 3 to 6 chapters for a test on different systems so this helps break it down and understand it more. Thanks
@honeyitaliana Glad to be of service
Thumbs up if hes better than your own teacher!!!
@anitawill1999 Aww thanks!
Very informal
thank you so much! I have an exam tomorrow and this video helps me a lot to understand the skeletal system.
are you guyanse? u soud guyanse!
@BollywoodLuvr24 No. Leslie is actually from St. Maarten. But, thank you for watching our Biology videos.
@toinath2009 Glad to know that the video helped. We hope you aced your exam. Stay tuned for more!
@InteractiveBiology I did!!! thanks so much! I only had one mistake from my exam. Thank you so much!!!!:)
@toinath2009 Wow! That’s fantastic! Stay tuned for more because we have new videos coming very soon!
@InteractiveBiology ohhhh cool i have a friend from dere!
i wish you were my teacher leslie
youre so great!
thanks
