Why do bones last so long while the rest of the person wears away?

Usually the rest of the human body gets decomposed by insects and maggots and they usually don’t like eating bones

Explanation:As you age, your body may reabsorb calcium and phosphate from your bones instead of keeping these minerals in your bones. This makes your bones weaker. When this process reaches a certain stage, it is called osteoporosis. Many times, a person will fracture a bone before they even know they have bone loss.May 17, 2018
