The chest bones, primarily the rib cage, are made up of ribs, the sternum (breastbone), and the thoracic vertebrae. The ribs consist of 12 pairs that connect to the spine at the back and curve around to attach to the sternum at the front via cartilage. The sternum is a flat bone located in the center of the chest and serves as an attachment point for the ribs. Together, these bones protect vital organs such as the heart and lungs while allowing for the expansion and contraction necessary for breathing.

The other 24 bones consist of 2 sets of 12 ribs, found on each side of the chest cavity. These bones are very important in providing protection to vital organs and the ribs specifically allow for breathing by expanding and contracting.
The chest cavity, or thoracic cavity, contains 24 bones primarily made up of the rib cage. This includes 12 pairs of ribs, which attach to the thoracic vertebrae in the spine. Additionally, the sternum, or breastbone, comprises three parts: the manubrium, body, and xiphoid process, contributing to the overall structure of the chest. Together, these bones protect vital organs such as the heart and lungs, while also assisting in respiration.
