    There are 206 bones in the adult human skeletal system, divided into 80 axial bones and 126 appendicular bones. The axial skeleton includes the skull (22 bones), vertebral column (26 bones), and thoracic cage (25 bones). The appendicular skeleton includes the pectoral girdles (4 bones), upper limbs (60 bones per arm), pelvic girdles (2 bones), and lower limbs (60 bones per leg). Key bones of the skull, vertebral column, limbs, and other areas are also outlined.
