Do men and women have the same amount of bones?



Answers:
yes. as an adult.. 206

women and men both have 12 sets of ribs.. anyone who tells you otherwise is plain wrong and is misinforming you.
it depends if the man is aroused or not
Maybe one less, if you remember that God took a rib from Adam and created Eve.
YES , MEN AND WOMEN HAVE THE SAME NUMBER OF BONES, RN.
no. according to the bible, one of adam's ribs was used to make eve. women have one more rib than men do.
YES

There is a myth that men and women have a different number of ribs, but that is false

And is also proof that the Bible is just a fairy story
Yes. Chimpanzees too.
NO, men have one less rib than a woman. Its a fact but in the bible it says Eve was created by one of Adam's ribs, so I guess that's how he lost one LOL.
And lmao Michael!
No. Men have less ribs than women. I'm not sure on them having less or more elsewhere, but I'm certain on them having less ribs.
yes 206 each. but interestingly, as infants we start out with 350 which later fuse together. and half of your bones are contained in your hands and feet. see the website for gray's anatomy. not the tv show!

Of course! :)
no..women have less bones.. than men
Women definately have one more! My wife is always saying to me "I have a bone to pick with you". All her other bones are in place so, this must be a extra one!
men have less than women..i think so
Men have one less rib than a woman. 236
An adult human usually has 206 bones, no matter the gender, but a baby has about 270. As mentioned above, the bones fuse as a person ages. That process is usually complete by age 14. Men and women both have 12 pairs of ribs, and ribs can regenerate when removed. As a result, there is no physical characteristic of human skeletons that reflects the story of Genesis. To state it completely unequivocally: a man has neither one fewer pair of ribs than a woman, nor an unpaired rib. Men and women have the exact same number and arrangement of ribs.

There are some differences between male and female skeletons, but they are not related to the number of bones. Still, men have longer and thicker limbs (arms and legs) and digits (fingers and toes), wider rib cages, and larger teeth. The pelvis also has a significantly different shape between the genders.
Yes! cause both r humans.
Ask a question in the biology section and get loads of religious answers!
Too much generalising here! I would say that Yes, usually men and women have the same number of bones - but how about all the interbreeding that goes on in certain areas? People with six fingers for a start! Do they lose bones from other areas to create the extra finger?
We are all different!
yes
both start to differ from 269 bones each and reach to 206 finally .In the course men have less bones then woman looses faster.
The same number. No difference
No ofcourse not.
We have one "bone"r extra.
And I want the bone back God used to create women.
Someting went wrong there.
Can we retry it again?
No woman and man have the same number of bones.A typical adult human skeleton consists of the following 206 bones, though a small portion of the human population have an extra bone, occurring in the form of an extra rib. (Numbers in bold refer to the diagram at right.) that's the only difference
i think. yes.Both are same kind of organism.
Men and women both have the same number of bones. The confusion over the ribs is that some pople have one or two more sets of what are termed floating ribs than others.
Yes men and women have the same amount of bones.

EXCEPT.. skinny woman (or perhaps some men?) who have their lower ribs removed. and australian aboriginals who have evolved an extra bone in their ankles so squating (to sit that is) for long periods of time is more comfortable.
Excluding deformities/mutations, men and women will have the same number of bones. In an adult human that would be 206.
I'm not religious, but it's true that men have one less rib than women
206 generally but ocassionally you can have more or less pairs of ribs. However they always come in pairs.
yes.we have the same number of bones..
