Indigenous Men and women all have 14 pair of ribs.{Native American, Eskimo, Aborigine, etc... etc...} Medical science teaches that all men and women have 14 sets. However to the contrary. I have 13 up one side and 14 up the other. I found this out when I asked my chiropractor if it was true, the "Adams Rib" idea. He said that it was just a bunch of Bible melarky. Then he got out my x-ray and began counting only to find that my rib cage gave compliance to "Adams Rib".
Since then I have been observant of peoples rib cages. Women all the same, symetrical and uniform in shape. Men of indigenous descent also are symetrical and uniform in shape. Thus indicating an equal number of ribs per side. Non -indigenous Men have a non-symetrical shape to the rib cage. This is my experience and observation on the subject. Any scientific research on the subject seems incomplete and vague. For this reason I suggest you research it yourself If you care to have an accurate idea.
The thorax is not part of a system. It is a whole region of the body, containing parts of several different systems. For example, in humans the thorax contains the heart, the stomach, and the lungs, which all belong to different systems.

The skeletal system consists of bones, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments. These parts work together to provide structure, support, and protection to the body, as well as assist with movement.
In the skeletal system, the cartilage is really important. The cartilage is used to connect our ribs to the sternum. Since the cartilage is more flexible than bones, this part of the body is essential. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to breathe.
Examples of the skeletal system include bones, cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. These structures provide support, protection, and movement for the body. The skeletal system also works with muscles to allow for mobility and maintain the body's shape.
skull, ribs, and bones
ribs and scole out of bones!
Ribs and spine
The skeletal system keeps the body together and also protects vital organs such as the ribs protect the lungs.
The sternum is also known as the breastbone, and it is part of the skeletal system.
The lungs and heart. its the ribs that protect it
There are 12 pairs or 24 ribs in the rib cage.
No, it contains bone and cartilage and is part of the skeletal system.
yes they have very light bones and over 145 pairs of ribs
The immune system.
The thorax is not part of a system. It is a whole region of the body, containing parts of several different systems. For example, in humans the thorax contains the heart, the stomach, and the lungs, which all belong to different systems.
Some skeletal system examples are: skull, vertebrae, sacrum, ribs, sternum, shoulder blade, humerus, tibia, fibula, carpals, metacarpals, phalanges. Plus some others in the hip and leg.
