Then, ten bones in the ankle, two in the lower leg, five in the knee, one in the thigh, and three in each hip. There are eleven pairs of ribs. The hand has thirty bones, six in each finger. There are two bones in the forearm, two in the elbow, one in the upper arm, and four in each shoulder. This yields a sum of 102 bones on each side, for a total of 204.<br /> <br />Besides these, there are another 46 limbs. These include the eighteen vertebra of the spine, nine bones in the head, and eight in the neck. There are also six in the “gateway to the heart,” which is the chest, and another five at the outside orifices. The total is 248 limbs.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01327532734507513664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805550350374352336.post-44342058970772124442017-03-25T10:55:20.900-07:002017-03-25T10:55:20.900-07:00Anonymous, 206 + 32 teeth = 238.
