How many body parts in a human being?

It depends on how you divide the body up - there is not good answer to this question. You might try asking "how many parts are in the human skeleton" or "how many parts are in the human digestive system" instead.Body parts of a person can be subdivided into external and internal parts. External body of a human consists of head, neck, mainbody, upper and lower arm. Internal parts includes the skeletal system, digestive system, respiratory system, reproductory system, endocrine and exocrine system, circulatory system. Coordinated functioning of both external and internal parts of a body allows normal functioning of the body.
