Which one of the following items gives its correct total number?

  1. Types of diabetes-3
  2. Cervical vertebrae in humans-8
  3. Floating ribs in humans-4
  4. Amino acids found in proteins-16

Answer

(3) Floating ribs in humans-4

Solution

As per NCERT, the last 2 pairs of ribs (11th and 12th) are not connected ventrally and are called floating ribs.

⇒ Total floating ribs = 2 2 = 4

Other items: diabetes mellitus is of 2 main types (Type I and Type II); cervical vertebrae in humans = 7; amino acids found in proteins = 20.

∴ Floating ribs in humans – 4 is correct.

Answer: (3)
