The Human Skeleton

<By Adam Robinson>

What are bones made of?

• Almost every bone in your body is made of the same material.• The outer surface is called the Periosteum• The next layer is called the compact bone• Within the compact bone there are many layers of cancellous• In many bones, the cancellous bone protects the innermost

part of the bone, the bone marrow.• Bones are strong if you look after them!!!

How many bones are in your body?

• When you are a baby you have about 300 bones in your body.

• To develop your bones you need calcium. The calcium basically makes two or three bones connect.

• When you are about 25 years old you have about 206 bones in your body.
