About This Quiz
When we're born, we have about 270 bones. As we grow, some of those bones fuse together, leaving us with just about 206 bones left over. That's a lot of components to help us walk, talk, sit and go about our everyday business. Those of you who have taken an anatomy and physiology class know that the human skeleton is beyond complex. Each of these bones has a different function and is pretty necessary to complete tasks in a normal fashion. Some bones protect various parts of our bodies. Some bones help us walk upright. Still other bones hold our organs in place. No matter what, the majority of our bones are there for a reason (or, due to evolution, once served a greater purpose).Â
While you might know the skull, tibia and fibula, do you know what the bones at the tips of your fingers are called? Save your answer for this quiz. But remember, even if you aren't familiar with the full names of human bones, we welcome you to guess what goes where. Take this quiz to see just how much you remember from your A & P class (or even high school biology) and see if you can guess more than 20 of these bones correctly.
