There are 25 bones in the chest. One of these bones is the sternum. The sternum lies near the top center of the chest, in between the rib cage. The other 24 bones consist of 2 sets of 12 ribs, found on each side of the chest cavity. These bones are very important in providing protection to vital organs and the ribs specifically allow for breathing by expanding and contracting.

The mammalian breast does not cintain any bones it is almost entirely connective tissue. Beneath the breast arethe ribs and how many lie beneath it depends entirely on the size of the breast. There is a bone that is commonly reffered to as the "breast bone" and this is the sternum. In a typical human this is one bone that is made up of three fused bones. These parts are called the zyphoid process, the body and the manubrium.
