The Skeletal, Muscular, and Nervous Systems

Question 10 • Foundations of Personal Wellness A

All of the following are functions of the skeletal system EXCEPT:

Answer
A
producing red blood cells
B
providing support for the body
C
producing white blood cells
D
producing ligaments and tendons

Explanation

The skeletal system supports the body and contains bone marrow, which produces red and white blood cells. Ligaments and tendons are connective tissues that attach bones to other bones or muscles; producing them is not a function of the skeletal system. Therefore, “producing ligaments and tendons” is the exception.
