It can tell the scientist the position the body was left in, how/if the body was disposed of. The most challenging aspect would most likely be collecting all of the bones. Many of the bones in the wrists and ankles are small but can show crucial evidence. (Such as if they had a degenerative bone disease/arthritis)

Answer: 1.-The distribution of bones tell a lot to a forensic scientists since they would look to see if the bones are worn out and see if they have any indication that there might be a disease or anything. This information would be helpful because if the bones had a disease like arthritis or something forensic scientist would be able to tell that the person is older. They would also look to see if the would be able to tell that the person is older. They would also look to see if the bones were scattered so that they would be able to tell if they were dead for a long time or not. Lastly they would look at the teeth because that is how you can tell the difference between an adult and a child.  

2.- The most challenging aspect would be collecting all the bones since the human body has 270 bones when we are born that reduces to 206 when we are adults. The smaller ones sometimes can be key in an investigation.
