Yes. Human ribs are bones, called flat bones, and are part of the axial skeleton.
The ribs protect your lungs (along with the sternum, which protects the heart).
True ribs protect the heart, lungs and the diaphragm.
Ribs serve to protect vital organs in our bodies, such as the heart and lungs. They also provide structure and support to the chest cavity, allowing us to breathe properly and move our upper body effectively.
The organs protected by the rib cage include the heart, lungs, stomach, and liver.
Humans normally have 12 pairs of ribs, but occasionally there are 2 extra pairs of very short ribs.
Ribs 6-12 protect the liver along with the bottom of the sternum
Your kidneys are protected by ribs and fat.
To protect the internal organs, like the liver, kidneys, heart, stomach, etc.
The lower ribs provide some degree of protection for the kidneys, particularly the lower ribs on the left and right sides of the body. However, the kidneys are primarily protected by layers of muscle and fat, as well as their positioning in the posterior abdomen. While the ribs can help shield the kidneys from direct trauma, they do not offer complete protection against injury. Other factors, such as body composition and overall health, also play a role in kidney protection.
your ribs ^^ Actually, it's your adipose tissue that is holding the kidneys in place. The kidneys are below the ribs.
Ribs have joints to protect our lungs.
