    Study Notes

    Human Skeleton

    • The adult human skeleton consists of 206 bones.

    Thorax (Chest)

    • The chest (thorax) is composed of 52 bones, including the sternum, ribs, and thoracic vertebrae.

    Spine Composition

    • The spine is composed of 33 vertebrae: 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral vertebrae, and 4 coccygeal vertebrae.
    • The cervical vertebrae are located in the neck, the thoracic vertebrae in the chest, the lumbar vertebrae in the lower back, the sacral vertebrae in the pelvis, and the coccygeal vertebrae at the bottom of the spine.

    Ribs and Breastbone

    • 12 pairs of ribs are connected to the breastbone (sternum) by cartilages.

    Largest Vertebra

    • The largest vertebra in the spinal column is typically the fifth lumbar vertebra (L5).
