A. Storage of minerals
B. Production of erythrocytes
C. Locomotion
D. Production of body heat
Answer:- The right answer is “Production of body heat.”
Explanation:-
The skeletal system is an organ system that provides structural support and protection for the body’s organs, as well as facilitates movement. Some of the main functions of the skeletal system include:
- Support and protection of organs
- Facilitation of movement
- Storage of minerals such as calcium and phosphorus
- Production of red blood cells in bone marrow
While the skeletal system is involved in maintaining body temperature through insulation, the production of body heat is mainly performed by the muscular system through muscle contractions. Therefore, the function that is not a function of the skeletal system is production of body heat.
