Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The degeneration of joint cartilages due to lack of exercise.
Introduction:
Two hundred six bones are present in an adult human body. The largest and the longest bone in the body is the femur, and smallest bones are present in the ear as ear ossicles. These bones range in terms of shape and function and are made up of various minerals and proteins.
