  1. I'd say the skull. It holds the your brain, Next maybe the rib cage, holds your lungs and heart in place.


  2. Protection:

    The skeleton protects many vital organs:

    The skull protects the brain, the eyes, and the middle and inner ears.

    The spine protects the spinal cord.

    The rib cage, spine, and sternum protect the lungs, heart and major blood vessels.

    The clavicle and scapula protect the shoulder.

    The ilium and spine protect the digestive and urogenital systems and the hip.

    The patella and the ulna protect the knee and the elbow respectively.

    The carpals and tarsals protect the wrist and ankle respectively.

  3. for me, it's gotta be the teeth..

    - they are used for chewing and eating..

    - and it makes you look good and nice.

  4. skull - protects the brain

    rib cage - protects the heart and lungs

    vertebra - protects the spinal cord

    and there you go =]

    yeah, all bones are important since all of them have red-blood-cell producing structures called marrow
