Detailed explanation-1: -The soft bone marrow, which is found inside many bones, makes most of the body’s red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.

Detailed explanation-2: -Where are blood cells made? Blood cells are made in the bone marrow. The bone marrow is the soft, spongy material in the center of the bones. It produces about 95% of the body’s blood cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -The skeletal system helps maintain mineral homeostasis by regulating the level of calcium and other minerals in the blood by storing or releasing them from bones as needed. This process also helps maintain homeostasis in blood pH because the minerals are basic.

Detailed explanation-4: -Red blood cells are formed in the red bone marrow of bones. Stem cells in the red bone marrow are called hemocytoblasts. They give rise to all of the formed elements in blood. If a stem cell commits to becoming a cell called a proerythroblast, it will develop into a new red blood cell.

Detailed explanation-5: -The skeletal system is the framework of the body, consisting of bones and other connective tissues, which protects and supports the body tissues and internal organs.
