How many bones are in the human body?

Answer 1

The number of bones in the human body varies. Babies are born with more than 300 bones, while the average number in an adult is 206, with variations in number from person to person.

Answer 2

Humans are born with about 300 to 350 bones. Many of these bones fuse together between birth and maturity to produce an average adult total of 208 bones. The number of bones in the human body varies according to the counting method used. While some methods consider a given structure to be a single bone with multiple parts, others consider the same structure to be multiple bones.

Answer 3

The number of bones in the human body depends on your age. As you grow, the bones fuse together; the average baby has generally 300 bones, whereas the average adult has generally 206 bones, however, the number of bones within your skeletal system may vary slightly from person to person.

Answer 4

206 is the classic answer but a few here are right about babies having as many as 350.

I notice one 208 in there also

and i'd like to roll the bones on this one and say several answers are correct here, but people vary with 3 to 5 bones of the coccyx.

So many different answers here are correct . Props to those who know
