Detailed explanation-1: -Your axial skeleton is made up of the 80 bones within the central core of your body. This includes bones in your skull (cranial and facial bones ), ears, neck, back (vertebrae, sacrum and tailbone) and ribcage (sternum and ribs).
Detailed explanation-2: -The axial skeleton includes all the bones (that form bony structures) along the body’s long axis. The bones of the appendicular skeleton make up the rest of the skeleton, and are so called because they are appendages of the axial skeleton.
Detailed explanation-3: -The skeleton is subdivided into two major divisions-the axial and appendicular. The axial skeleton forms the vertical, central axis of the body and includes all bones of the head, neck, chest, and back (Figure 7.2). It serves to protect the brain, spinal cord, heart, and lungs.
