- Infants are born with about 270 bones, but as they grow, some of these bones fuse together, resulting in the standard adult count.
- 206 bones is the commonly accepted count for an average adult, often referenced in anatomy studies.
- Incorrect values reported for adult bone count could include figures like 200 or 250, which do not reflect the standard anatomy.
