NUMBER OF BONES.?PARTICULAR BONES.?JOINTS. 18. The number of bones in the human body is two hundred (Fig. 8). At one period of life they are nearly all cartilaginous, but the cartilage is gradually changed into bone. This process of change, ossification, as it is called, is not complete before the twenty-fifth year of life, and therefore no person can be called really grown up until that time. 19. The Vertebrae.?The foundation, so to speak, of the body?that portion of the skeleton to which the remainder is attached, and from which it is built up?is the spine, or backbone (Fig. 9).

The bodies of the vertebrae form the front of the spinal column. From the rear of each of these bodies are offshoots of bone, which unite in such a way as to leave a hole about half an inch in diameter running up and down. These vertebras are placed one above another, with elastic pads of cartilage between their bodies. These pads are so thick that, taken all together, they make up about one fourth of the whole Fig. 8.?The skeleton. length of the backbone.

This canal contains the spinal cord, which, next to the brain, is the most important part of the nervous system.
