Title: How does the skeletal system maintain homeostasis? Post by: bears4dawin on Jan 7, 2013 Your skeletal system helps maintain homeostasis by producing new red blood cells as the old ones die off. It also helps maintain the level of calcium in the blood stream.
Title: How does the skeletal system maintain homeostasis? Post by: ang3lia on Jan 7, 2013 There are two cell types, called osteoblasts and osteoclasts.
Osteoclasts take bone, and re-absorb them. Osteoblasts then build new bone. Essentially, your bones suffer wear and tear. Osteoclasts take old bone, which may have some small fractures and reabsorb them. When this happens, your osteoblasts come in, and rebuild the bone.

The skeletal system also serves as an important source of immune system stem cells. It serves as a source of minerals for electrolyte, and acid-base balance. |
