Verified answer

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 true ribs.

Most people have 24 ribs, with 12 on each side of the body.

The ribs and rib cage are excellent examples of the human body’s multi-faceted and multi-functional design.

They are strong enough to support the skeleton and protect the vital organs in the chest cavity, including the heart, lungs, and spleen. Yet, the ribs and rib cage are also flexible enough to expand and contract as the lungs fill and release with the breath.

There’s a commonly held falsehood that men have one less rib than women. This myth may have its roots in The Bible and the creation story about Eve being made from one of Adam’s ribs.

This myth is exactly that: an unproven, untrue belief. It’s no longer held as fact by religious leaders of any denomination.
