No, some people are missing appendages or have more than their share (e.g., polydactyly) and some people have fewer plates in their skulls than others. Some people are born with extra ribs and have varying numbers of sesamoidal bones (the knee cap is a sesamoidal bone and some people have had it removed surgically). Children have more bones than adults because their bones have not completely fused.

Are all the bones in the human body breakable?

Yes, all the bones in the human body are breakable to some degree. However, some bones may be more susceptible to fractures than others due to factors such as age, activity level, and underlying conditions.


Are there more bones in your feet than anywhere else in your body?

No, there are not. It is true that your hands and feet together account for about half the bones in your body (unless you're a doctor, counting the number of bones is more complicated than you would think.... some bones usually fuse together as you grow, and in some people this never occurs with some of the bones for various reasons, so it's hard to be exact). The bones of the hand and foot are different in detail, but similar in overall organization... there are about the same number of bones in your hands as in your feet (which makes sense, if you think about it).


How many bones do people have?

An adult human has 206 bones. At birth, a baby has around 270 bones, but some of these fuse together as the individual grows.


What do you have more bones or more muscles?

You have 212 bones in your body total (including the ones in your ears) and about 660 musceles in your body, but not exactly because people can't agree what defines a muscle...maybe some of our muscles may end up like Pluto and not be called muscles anymore...but for now, on 4/13/10, there are more muscles.
