This has been answered many times.
The bible recognizes the body as a soul. The spirit is the life force that belongs to God and temporarily to you. It is the driving force that motivates you, but goes back to God when you die.

The soul is the person or the life he has enjoyed. Adam and Eve were living "souls", as are animals and more. The spirit is the force that animates the body, like electricity animates a watch or a clock. Once the spirit leaves, you die.

Human is made of three parts body and soul and spirit

For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Man is made up of three parts: a body, soul, and spirit. The soul is our will and the spirit is that part that is made in the image of God.
