Question

State whether the following statements are true or false.
The human skeleton has 206 bones.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The human skeleton is the internal framework of the body. It is composed of around 270 bones at birth - this total decreases to around 206 bones by adulthood after some bones get fused together. The bone mass in the skeleton reaches maximum density around age 21.

So, the correct answer is 'True'.
