Our body would be non functional and we would die if we had no other medical intervention that will keep us alive. The human body without bones is just like an semi-empty sack.
Explanation:
Our skeleton is a very rigid structure of bones which provides support for our muscles, skin and its task is also to protect our vital organs.Whithout the bone we would be unable to do anything, beacuse our nerves, blood flow, lungs, organs would be blocked and squeezeed.
