Detailed explanation-2: -The axial skeleton is the part of the skeleton that consists of the bones of the head and trunk of a vertebrate. In the human skeleton, it consists of 80 bones and is composed of six parts; the skull (22 bones), also the ossicles of the middle ear, the hyoid bone, the rib cage, sternum and the vertebral column.

Detailed explanation-3: -The axial skeleton includes the bones that form the skull, laryngeal skeleton, vertebral column, and thoracic cage. The bones of the appendicular skeleton (the limbs and girdles) “append” to the axial skeleton.

Detailed explanation-4: -The axial skeleton contains the core skeletal structure without the limbs. It has three main parts: the skull, the vertebral column, and the thoracic cage. The skull holds and protects the brain as well as forms the underlying structures of the face.
