The axial skeleton forms the main axis of the body and includes the vertebral column, cranium, and thoracic cage. The appendicular skeleton forms the limbs and includes the shoulder and pelvic girdles, clavicle, scapula, arms, pelvic bone, and legs. It instructs the reader to complete a worksheet on the skeletal system.
