Bones of the appendicular skeleton facilitate movement, while bones of the axial skeleton protect internal organs. All skeletal structures belong to either the appendicular skeleton (girdles and limbs) or to the axial skeleton (skull, vertebral column, and thoracic cage).
If you’re picturing your skeletal system, you might think of the plastic skeleton your science teacher used to keep in their classroom. It does contain all your bones, but your skeletal system has lots of other tissue, too.
The skeleton is traditionally divided into two major parts: the axial skeleton (which includes the skull, spine, and rib cage) and the appendicular skeleton (which includes the appendages and the girdles that attach them to the axial skeleton).
