Answer:

One of the following is not a function of bones

A) Protection of vital organs

B) Secretion of hormones for calcium regulation in blood and bones

C) Place for muscle attachment

D) Production of blood corpuscles

Correct Answer is Option B

Answer 2

Secretion of hormones for calcium regulation in blood and bones is not a function of bones.

1. Bones provide great protection to the vital and delicate organs from any injury. They restrict the organs from any sort of damage. For example, the rib cage safeguards the heart and lungs. The skeleton provides a framework to the body.

2. Axial bone is the place for muscle attachment. Flat bones form a junction for the attachment.

3. Bone marrow is the place where a large number of white blood corpuscles are formed which fight against the foreign elements and protect the body against diseases.
