Explanation:
The ribs partially enclose and protect the chest cavity, where many vital organs (including the heart and the lungs) are located.At the chest, many rib bones connect to the sternum via costal cartilage, segments of hyaline cartilage that allow the rib cage to expand during respiration.
The lungs and the heart need to be close together because they work together. Your rib cage goes around your lungs and heart to protect them from damage. Your ribs also move when you breathe in and out.
