the exta bone in the females body is an extra rib.
No: this is a very widespread and longstanding myth, relating to the story in Genesis that God took a rib out of Adam while he slept and used it to fashion Eve.
A human, man or woman, commonly has twelve pairs of ribs. This can be verified by looking at a skeleton or a standard anatomy chart.
In rare cases a person has thirteen pairs, the extra pair being referred to as a "gorilla rib" as these apes normally have thirteen pairs of ribs.
It is also possible for a man or woman to have a stunted rib or a pair of stunted ribs growing out of their neck, these being known as cervical ribs. These can go undetected for life, or can make themselves known at any time by constricting muscle function. I was checked for these (I didn't have one) when, for a brief period while I was in my late 40s, I became unable to lift my right arm upward past an angle of about 45 degrees. It was finally decided that the problem was due to a muscle spasm I was experiencing as a result of anxiety I was feeling at the time. (Well, it beat developing an ulcer.)
