Answer:

the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton.

Step-by-step explanation:

The human skeleton can be considered divided into two large groups of bones: the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. Between both skeletons it is said that the human body has a total of 206 bones, of which 126 belong only to the appendicular skeleton.
