What do the bones of the cranium (skull) do?

↠Protects the brain ↠Bones are attached by immovable joints called sutures

Tibia

↠Shin bone ↠Medial (towards the middle) of the fibula ↠Thicker--bears weight o femur

Iliac crest

Top of the ilium

Patella

Triangular bone that protects the knee joint
