Ribs are primarily made of bone, which makes them hard and rigid. However, they also contain cartilage at their joints and ends, which is softer and more flexible. This combination allows for both protection of vital organs and some movement during breathing. Overall, while the bony structure is hard, the presence of cartilage adds a degree of softness.
