How many bones support the skeletal system?

Answer 1

The skeletal system of the human adult body is made up of 206 bones. Oddly, though, the human is born with 270 bones in the body. This includes the bones of the scull that are not yet fused together.

Answer 2

While the adult skeleton contains 206 bones, the skeleton of an infant contains 350 (the bones fuse together as you grow). And more than half of your 206 bones are found in your hands and feet.

Answer 3

Nearly 300 in an infant and 206 in an adult

Answer 4

The skeletal system consists of all the bones in your body. There are 206 of them including 3 tiny bones in your middle ears.

Answer 5

206
