Explanation
The number of bones in the body of an adult human being is typically 206. This number may vary slightly from person to person due to differences in bone structure or the presence of certain bones. At birth, a human baby has around 270 bones, but some of these bones fuse together as the child grows, resulting in the lower number of bones in adults. The skeletal system, composed of these bones, provides support to the body, protects internal organs, produces blood cells, and enables movement.
