associated cartilages and joints of human body. Together these structures form the human skeleton. Skeleton can be defined as the hard framework of human body around which the entire body is built. Almost all the hard parts of human body are components of human skeletal system. Joints are very important because they make the hard and rigid skeleton allow different types of movements at different locations. If the skeleton were without joints‚ no movement would have taken place and the significance of human

Robert Neville followed a man‚ who was turning‚ into an ocean of unlike humans. In an excerpt from‚ I Am Legend Richard Matheson uses a wide array of rhetorical devices in order to convey the strong action he uses. Matheson uses different types of imagery and similes to describe the man who was leading him in the beginning of the excerpt. Neville hears the man’s voice as "a grating rasp" that is labeled as sonic imagery that the reader can connect to someone/thing in their own life. Furthermore

There are four major tissues in the human body. One of the major tissues is the epithelial issue that covers the surface of the body. It helps line the body cavities and organ cavities. There is no extracellular matrix between the cells that are located in the epithelial tissues because they are closely packed. The epithelial is also composed of one or more layers of packed cells. The other major tissue is the connective tissue‚ which is more diverse and abundant‚ compared to the other tissues

original mineral composition or structure. Their remaining parts either get recrystallized or replaced by other minerals such as silica and iron pyrites. This is called a fossil. Recrystallization means exchange of one chemical by another within the skeleton which results in a coarser‚ perhaps heavier structure. Many fossils consist of original hard parts of the animal as well as minerals taken from the surrounding rocks. This process preserves the fossil’s structure but increases its hardness and weight

The pelvis is a large semicircular bone complex that forms the base on which the torso and upper body are positioned. The pelvis‚ which is a rigid and inflexible portion of the skeleton‚ is built to provide a foundation of the movement of other parts of the anatomy‚ particularly the back and the legs. The pelvis also permits the weight of the entire upper body to be evenly distributed to the legs‚ which are connected to the pelvis

The narrator realizes that every person that was buried in the cemetery has risen from the dead and is rewriting the words on their

stable covalent carbon-carbon bonds. Carbon can also form branched chains and rings- these structures help to provide the skeletons of organic molecules. Number of carbon atoms in the chain is important because this influences the size and the shape of molecules. Versatility of the carbon chains can contribute to the variety of molecules produced. A bare carbon atom skeleton can have little biological function. The second special feature of carbon is that it is able t form covalent bonds with other
