### Functions of Bones 1. **Contributes to bone strength** - Bones release minerals into the bloodstream, which are necessary for maintaining bone health and distributing them throughout the body. 2. **Storage of Triglycerides** - The yellow bone marrow is mainly composed of adipocytes, which store triglycerides.
