Best Answer

The total number of bones depends entirely on the type and size of the snake.

In general, snakes have sectioned vertebrae (backbones) with ball and socket joints between sections of vertebrae that allow for curving motion. They also have anywhere from one to 145 pairs of ribs attached to the vertebrae, and a skull with a hinged jaw.
