Intercostal Spaces
Pandas have a total of 24 ribs, which is the same as most other bear species. Their ribs are important for protecting their internal organs and supporting their body structure.
It's the non-bony extension (continuation) of the ribs, that connects the ribs and the sternum (breast bone), thus forming a complete framework for the thoracic space.

Birds have some bones in their bodies that are "hollow." These are called pneumatic bones, and they help birds breathe when they are in flight. The bones of the pelvic girdle, some ribs, the humeru,s and the femur all are pneumatic.
The lateral aspect of the lower ribs refers to the outer or side part of the lower ribs. It is the area where the lower ribs curve and connect to the sternum in the front and the spine in the back. This region is important for protecting the internal organs and supporting the structure of the chest.
The skeletal system provides a framework and support for soft tissues. It also produces blood cells in the red marrow found in bones like the sternum, ribs, and pelvic bones.
The correct order of ribs from superior to inferior are true ribs, false ribs, and floating ribs. Humans have 24 ribs.
Three types of ribs we have are True ribs, False ribs, and Floating ribs.
The order of ribs from superior to inferior is: True ribs (1-7) False ribs (8-10) Floating ribs (11-12)
The chest of a human body consists of the heart, lungs and ribs to protect both vital organs. Ribs 1-7 are commonly called the true ribs.
