What Instrument did the Skeleton play?.."tromBONES"

What do our bones actually do for us other than the obvious which is to help us move and provide structural support? Well, we're here to find out.  For anyone who doesn't know the human body consists of 206 bones. I know you wouldn't think your body had that many bones in it, but it does. Did you know that Bones are technically considered Organs because they're made from more than one type of tissue? Interesting.

There are so many bones in the human body that it would be impossible to name all of them if not for the location method which would be dividing the structures first by location into the Axial and Appendicular. Axial bones are bones that a human cannot live without, they provide support, hold some of your organs, etc. Appendicular bones provide mobility. Bones are made up of actively generating tissues, which means that your skeleton, in reality, is breaking down and a new skeleton is in its place every ten years or so. The bones in your body are more than just a support system for your flesh, they are the way you keep Calcium Phosphate and other minerals to keep your neurons firing and muscle contracting. Your bones are also critical for Hematopoiesis which is blood cell production.

Bones are very critical to human survival, without them we would be dead. Simple as that. Bones do more than just hold us up.

CONGRATULATION GRADUATION CLASS..WELL 1/3 OF YOU

Image
HOOK - The Fact that only 1/3 of students who begin college will not graduate Within 6 years is mind-blowing.  I didn't know that it was this bad, I would have thought at least 50% would graduate within 6 years, but now that I see that it is 1/3 it makes sense if you think about it. BRIDGE- Why would some students not graduate within the 6 years given,  there are  so many different reasons for this, here are some of them;  People might say the reason for that is, maybe early parenthood, or if " Life" hits people hard,  people might have to take a break from school because frankly they just need a break . Or they have early children that they have to take care of and cant maintain a job and school at the same time, they have to work overtime, and extra hours, just to feed the kids, and to pay rent, and other bills such as gas, light, water...etc. Then others might say that the people were just lazy, and they didn't want to do it in the first place, that if th

Is Wrestling the oldest sport known to man or is it Running?

I know some people believe that Wrestling was the Worlds first ever sport but, I am here to prove to you that in fact, it isn't. According to the " 8 Oldest Sports in the World" blog on Oldest.Org, Running is the world's oldest sport because there was no equipment needed to run on two feet. I run, You run, everybody runs but not everyone wrestles. How long do you think it would take for people when they started running to say " Hey, I bet I'm faster than you?". Not too long is probably your answer, mine too. "One of the earliest depictions of sprinting is found in the Lascaux caves in France, dating back to the Upper Paleolithic era (about 15,300 years ago)".  This was also found with a wrestling depiction in those same caves, so there could be an argument that wrestling was the first sport. Running was also made an Olympic sport in 776 BCE while Wrestling was made on in 704 BCE which means running became an Olympic Sport 72 years before Wres
