Both sides of both males and  females will have 12 ribs on each side. The idea of males having  one less originates from the Bible, and just iâ¦sn't true.  'Course, some people might have had one removed due to injury.  The smallest ribs are a popular source if a surgeon needs to do a  bone graft for example.
The ribcage forms part of the bodyâs respiratory system. It enables expansion of the chest cavity so that the lungs can expand and breathe in oxygen. The ribcage also encloses the thoracic cavity and helps protect the heart and lungs from damage. There are 24 ribs in the human body, divided into two sets of 12 curved, flat bones. Each one is attached by cartilage at the back to the thoracic vertebrae. The first upper seven ribs are known as 'true ribs' and are directly attached by cartilage to a long flat bone at the centre of the chest called the sternum (breastbone). The remaining pairs of ribs are known as âfalse ribsâ. The eighth, ninth and tenth ribs are also attached to the sternum but not directly.
