lo 3.1. what is the role of bones in movement? bones act as cushions to protect the organs bones provide flexibility for movement bones provide a source of energy for movement bones are only involved in supporting the body bones act as levers, allowing muscles to exert force and produce movement
Bones work with muscles in a lever - like system. Muscles attach to bones via tendons. When muscles contract, they pull on the bones, which act as levers to produce movement. They are not cushions for organs, do not provide flexibility (joints do that mainly), are not a source of energy for movement, and are not only for support in the context of movement.
