Question

what does the skeleton do? select all that apply. it gives the body its structure and allows it to move. it stores solid waste before it is released from the body. it adjusts the level of salt, water, and minerals in the blood. it receives signals from the brain to either contract or relax. it provides protection for some of the bodys soft organs.

Explanation:

The skeleton provides structural support and aids movement. It also protects soft - internal organs. Muscles receive signals from the brain to contract or relax, and while bones do play a role in mineral homeostasis (but not exactly adjusting salt, water and minerals in the blood as described here), storing solid waste is not a function of the skeleton.

Answer:

It gives the body its structure and allows it to move.
It provides protection for some of the body's soft organs.
