Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Shape and support. The bones form a framework to support your body just like steel girders in a building. The different length and thickness of the bones determine our individual shape and what sports we are most suitable for, although when playing for fun or at a low level it does not matter.
Detailed explanation-2: -Bone is a mineralized connective tissue that exhibits four types of cells: osteoblasts, bone lining cells, osteocytes, and osteoclasts [1, 2]. Bone exerts important functions in the body, such as locomotion, support and protection of soft tissues, calcium and phosphate storage, and harboring of bone marrow [3, 4].
