Describe the different types of ribs. Which ribs are considered “false” and why? Which ribs are
considered “floating,” and why?
Solution
Ribs are the essential organ for the protection of vital oragan in upper body, which include lung
and heart. it is not protecting the organ but they provide mechanical stength to the chest cavity.
they are also useful for breathing. there are twelve pair of ribes which possed total 24 bones
known as ribsbone. ribs are flat, thin bone which is attached with the sternum.
Ribs are classified in to three catogary bassed on size and how it connct with the skeleton
system.
1. true ribs
2. false ribs
3. floating ribs
True ribs are attached with the spine at the back around with sternum. first seven pair of ribs is
true ribs. next three pair means 8 to 10 pair is known as false ribs.
the majour differnce between the true ribs and false ribs is the attachment with the skeleton
system. true ribs are attached at the back portion while the false ribs are attached with the front
part of the body accrodind to the defination of ribs it is not directly connected with the sternum
but it is indirectly connected with that. actully it connected with the lower true ribs so it is called
as false ribs.
The last two ribs means 11th and 12th are known as floating ribs. it is smallest ribs among the
all. they like as in hanging position. it means they connected at the one end but the other end is
not conncted with any skeleton. so it seems like floating postion. thats why the name is given
floating. last two pairs are connected with spine at the back but they are not connected with
anything to the front, so thus appearing to float. because of that the name was given floating ribs.
