How many joints are there in human body when he born ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Difficult to answer: A fetus has about 300 bones but by the time the baby is born,many of the bones have fused and so the number of joints decrease.It is not the same in every newborn baby.Some fuse after birth .The average adult has 206 bones. This is a strange question to be on HT!!! :)
