Hands and feet have a limited number of digits—typically five each—due to evolutionary adaptations that balance functionality and mobility. This configuration allows for a versatile range of motions and grip strength in hands, while providing stability and support in feet. Fewer digits also streamline the skeletal structure, reducing complexity and energy expenditure during movement. Overall, this arrangement has proven effective for human survival and daily activities.
