The human skeleton, also known as the skeletal system, is made up of 206 bones that work together to provide support, protection, and movement for the body.

 The skeleton is divided into two main divisions: the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. The axial skeleton includes the bones that make up the skull, vertebral column, and thorax, while the appendicular skeleton includes the bones of the arms and legs and the bones that attach them to the axial skeleton.

The skull is the most complex part of the axial skeleton and is made up of 22 bones. It protects the brain, houses the eyes, ears, nose and mouth, and provides attachment points for the muscles that control the movement of the head and jaw. The vertebral column, also known as the spinal column or backbone, is made up of 24 vertebrae and is responsible for supporting the head and trunk, as well as protecting the spinal cord. 

The thorax, also known as the chest, is made up of the rib cage and the sternum. The rib cage provides protection for the heart, lungs and other organs, and also provides attachment points for the muscles that are involved in breathing.

 

The appendicular skeleton is composed of the bones of the upper and lower limbs, as well as the bones that attach them to the axial skeleton. The upper limb is made up of the arm, forearm, hand, and fingers.

 The arm is made up of the humerus, the bone of the upper arm, and the radius and ulna, the bones of the forearm. The hand is made up of the carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges. The lower limb is made up of the thigh, leg, foot and toes.

 The thigh is made up of the femur, the bone of the thigh. The leg is made up of the tibia and fibula, the bones of the lower leg. The foot is made up of the tarsals, metatarsals and phalanges. 

The bones of the upper and lower limb are connected to the axial skeleton by the shoulder and hip bones, respectively, which are known as the scapula and the pelvis.

The bones of the human skeleton also include the pectoral girdle which is composed of the clavicle and scapula, and provides a connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. The pelvic girdle,
