Yes, false ribs are still attached to coastal cartilages. Floating ribs aren't.
Ribs 8 to 10 are attached individually to the sternum by way of the costal cartilage. Ribs 1 to 7 are attached directly to the sternum, while ribs 11 and 12 are floating ribs without any attachment to the sternum.
Floating ribs are a type of false ribs. False ribs are ribs that do not directly attach to the sternum through cartilage, and they include both floating ribs (ribs 11-12) and ribs 8-10, which are attached to the sternum indirectly through cartilage.
The upper ribs are not attached to the sacrum. The ribs are connected to the thoracic vertebrae at the back and to the sternum in the front. The sarum or sacrum is a bone at the base of the spine that connects to the pelvic bones.
They are atached to your spine and they make a cage around your organe-to protect them & cover them.
The "true" ribs are the first 8 ribs of the horse's rib cage (there are 18 total ribs). They are the true ribs because the attach to both the vertebrae above them and the sternum below. I found this in a book-Chapter 35 of Saddles by Russel H. Beatie. Hope this helps.
True ribs attach with the cartilage that is a direct bridge to the sternum; they are called true ribs or vertebro-sternal ribs The false ribs just attach to cartilage that bind into one link or bridge that connects with the sternum (almost looks like a little web)
Yes, most are. There are a few called floating ribs that don't. we call them floating ribs.

At the thorax (ribs)
The upper ribs are not attached to the sacrum. The ribs are connected to the thoracic vertebrae at the back and to the sternum in the front. The sarum or sacrum is a bone at the base of the spine that connects to the pelvic bones.
They are atached to your spine and they make a cage around your organe-to protect them & cover them.
False ribs are connected via costal cartilage
they are defined as floating ribs
The "true" ribs are the first 8 ribs of the horse's rib cage (there are 18 total ribs). They are the true ribs because the attach to both the vertebrae above them and the sternum below. I found this in a book-Chapter 35 of Saddles by Russel H. Beatie. Hope this helps.
Floating ribs (ribs 11 and 12) do not articulate with the sternum directly but are attached only to the thoracic vertebrae in the back. They are considered "floating" because they lack an attachment to the sternum or cartilage.
There are 12 ribs, regardless of gender. 7 are considered true and are directly attached to the sternum through coastal cartilage. 3 are considered false and are connected to the coastal cartilage between the 7th true rib and the sternum, and 2 are considered floating and are not connected to the sternum or any other rib. (Not considering the connection they have in the vertebral column)
