| Machines keep the world moving—but muscles and bones were here first. This video looks at the human body in motion, studying the interaction of the skeleton and muscles and the ways in which engineers and designers imitate these systems. Demonstrating how bones allow mobility while also providing protection, the video examines skeletal strength, calcium’s importance, the internal structure of bones, and their dependence on muscles for cohesion and power. Use this Science Screen Report to reinforce key concepts in both anatomy and engineering, with implications for architecture, computer science, and other disciplines as well. A viewable/printable teacher’s guide is available at www.cambridgeeducational.com. |
