The human body consists of three main parts: head, torso, and limbs, with the skeleton made up of 206 bones in adults. The skeleton serves two primary functions: supporting the body and protecting internal organs, while joints facilitate movement by connecting bones. Muscles, which number around 600, work with bones to enable movement and are crucial for various body functions, including digestion and waste removal.
