At birth a newborn baby has ~270 bones, teenager of 14 years has ~365 bones whereas on average an adult human has ~206 bones. The difference comes from a number of small bones that fuse together during growth

When your a baby you have over 270 bones but when you are full grown you have only 206ish bones. Babies bones are made up cartilage and with help from calcium two or three bones combine and make one new hard bone.

No, at birth humans have between 300 and 350 bones. Many of these fuse together and by the time we reach adulthood, we end up with 206 bones. So adults actually have fewer than newborns.

Do you have more bones or more muscles?

Muscles develop first. Cartilage forms in place of many bones in the embryo and baby, to make it more flexible on its way out of the womb. The cartilage is then replaced by bones in a process called ossification, and is usually finished by the time the baby is 6 months old. There are 206 bones in an adult body, you have more bones when you're younger. Though, the exact number of muscles is not know, there are a lot more muscles. A rough estimate of more than 600 muscles.
