The appendicular skeleton makes up the extremities, or bone that attach to the axial skeleton. This section gave me some trouble because each section has many parts, landmarks to remember, and what bone attaches to what and how. Bones are formed by the mesoderm by intramembranous or endochondral ossification during development. Something interesting I learned from this section is that the bone stores and releases calcium which helps most body tissues to function.
