Hey guys! Welcome to another article of Brayden’s Architectural Adventure. I am so glad you are joining me today!

Did you know that architecture isn’t just in buildings? You might be thinking, “He’s crazy!” Well no, I’m actually not. Here is the definition. Architecture: Having a single unified overall design, form, or structure. (Source: Marriam-Webster) Architecture can be in anything! From Animals to a xylophone, architecture is everywhere!

So, today we are going to look at the human skeleton. The average human skeleton contains about 206 bones. Babies contain about 300. Your bones protect your internal organs. Without them, you could not stand and would be like pudding.

Your bones are rock hard. They have many layers so that they can hold you up. The first layer is the periosteum, a thin membrane that covers your bones. Layer number 2 is the compact bone, a smooth but very hard layer that you see in an      x-ray. The third layer is spongy bone, the part of the bone that is like a sponge. It has small holes that store the final layer, one of the most vital layers. The final layer is the bone marrow, which makes blood cells, that helps oxygen get to all  parts of the body.

There is one question, how do the bones stay together? Bones have a way to stay together, joints! Joints have three forms, ball and socket, pivot, and hinge.

You see, God made us with a very unique design. The very details of the human body make it one of the most amazing designs so that we can walk, talk, and play sports. That just about wraps up today’s article. Be sure to join me once again in Brayden’s Architectural Adventure. See you next time!
