The skeleton is made of bones that are hard and rigid and form the framework inside the body. It includes important bones like the skull that protects the brain, the spine located in the torso, and the ribs that protect the lungs and heart. Together, these bones and the skeleton allow us to think, breathe, and pump blood throughout our body.
