Question

10. What are false ribs? what is their number in human body?

Answer 1

In humans there are normally 12 pairs of ribs. The first seven pairs are attached directly to the sternum by costal cartilages and are called trueribs. The 8th, 9th, and 10th pairs—false ribs—do not join the sternum directly but are connected to the 7thrib by cartilage.

Answer 2

false ribs are the ribs which are not connected directly but indirectly in our thorax
they are about 2 or 3
