Answer:
An adult has 206 bones, but a newborn baby has nearly 300 bones in her body. This is because babies have more flexible cartilage (a firm tissue softer than bone) in the body. As the child grows, some of the cartilage hardens and turns to bone, and some bones fuse together.

A new born baby has more number of bones than an adult since they have flexible cartilages which also helps in easier child birth. Later when they grow up, some of them stiffen and become bones.
New born babies have around 300 bones and adults have 206 bones
