How many bones are in the human body?

206 -
If I remember correctly...

(No, I didn't count them! )

the skeleton of an adult human is comprised of 206 bones and two systems, the axial skeleton (the trunk of our body) and the appendicular skeleton (our limbs).

The bones themselves are divided up into four classes: long bones (which make up the limbs), short bones (which are grouped together to strengthen our skeleton), flat bones (which protect our body and provide a place for muscles to attach), and,irregular bones (those oddly shaped bones that don't fit into any of the other three categories).

some other interesting facts about the human skeleton. For instance, 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.
