Answer:

- making vitamins is a correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The skeletal system comprises of bones and joints of the body.

function of the skeletal system

  • Protecting the organ: The skeletal system protects our internal organs, the thorax protects lungs and heat, the skull protects the brain.
  • providing movement: bones work in combination with the skeletal system to help in facilitating the movement of the body.
  • Storing minerals: bones store minerals like calcium, calcium phosphate and phosphorus.

Thus these are a function of the skeletal system and making vitamins is not a function of skeletal system.
